Hi again,

The ojb-oql.g is based on the official oql.g to be found on www.odmg.org
(http://www.odmg.org/files/oqlg.zip).

This grammar does not match the EBNF found in the ODMG3.0 book!
It also contained several bugs.
We modified this grammar to produce ojb query objects. 
Please don't blame OJB for deficits of the official grammar!

Currently nobody is working on OQL improvements and there are also no plan
to work on it.
Of course all help is welcome to complete the OQL implementation!

> Is there any other way to resolve this issue using only ODMG API?

As OQL is the only ODMG way to perform queries: No!
As mentioned in my other mail: you can safely use PersistenceBroker queries
in OJB ODMG applications.

cheers,
Thomas
