Michael Bouschen commented on JDO-652: -------------------------------------- I added some more test cases, because the new DataNucleus version supports queries that ran into an Unsupported OperationException before. However I still have a problem with a cast Expression. Suppose a query with the following result: {noformat} query.setResult("MAX(((FullTimeEmployee)manager).salary)");{noformat} I tried the following JDOQLTypedQuery code: {noformat} QFullTimeEmployee cast = (QFullTimeEmployee)cand.manager.cast(FullTimeEmployee.class); query.result(false, cast.salary.max());{noformat} But it fails with an ClassCastException: org.datanucleus.api.jdo.query.PersistableExpressionImpl cannot be cast to org.apache.jdo.tck.pc.company.QFullTimeEmployee. Any idea? > Provision of a typesafe refactor-friendly query capability for JDOQL > -------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: JDO-652 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JDO-652 > Project: JDO > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: api, specification, tck > Reporter: Andy Jefferson > Assignee: Michael Bouschen > Priority: Major > Fix For: JDO 3.2 > > Attachments: JDO-652-api-ifTheElse.txt, JDO-652-api-patch-Andy.txt, > JDO-652-patch4.txt, typesafe.patch, typesafe_manifest.patch > > > There are various querying capabilities of this type around.
