I do not think I fully understand the question. You have a query that returns results partly as a bean and partly as a Map?
If you want to map your results to a bean in a Map, or a Map in a bean, you can use dot notation to make that work: myBean.myMap.someProperty or myMap.myBean.someProperty. Is that what you are trying to do, or are you talking about something totally different?
