The actual object (not the example) has a rather large data set that
is used during most processing.  I am looking to retrieve a subset of
the properties for some bulk operations.  The SQL generated by the
call is correct - the problem resides in mapping the results back to
the entity.  The AliasToBean class does not understand how to deal
with an element from a complex property like a class or struct.  If I
can extend the behavior of the AliasToBean process to look for "." and
navigate the sub-properties accordingly it would be sufficient.

Cheers,
Colin
