I looked at
org.ofbiz.entity.util.EntityUtil.getFieldListFromEntityList(List<GenericValue>, String, boolean)

I think I used the concept, but am unsure how to generalize so I could pass in a Map fields to check uniqueness by.
       List<GenericValue> filteredList = FastList.newInstance();
       Set distinctSet = FastSet.newInstance();
       String filterId = null;
       for (GenericValue gv : listWithDuplicates)
       {
           filterId = gv.getString("someId");
           if (!distinctSet.contains(filterId))
           {
               distinctSet.add(filterId);
               filteredList.add(gv);
           }
       }
       listWithDuplicates.clear();
       listWithDuplicates.addAll(filteredList);

Hi Stephen,

Depending on what you plan on doing with the results you may find the getFieldListFromEntityList(List<GenericValue>, String, boolean) method useful.

I have a query that I think require that I join in such a way that the resultset has multiple rows with the same id value.

I would like to do something similar to
org.ofbiz.entity.util.EntityUtil.filterByAnd(List<T>, Map<String, ? extends Object>)

but maybe called
EntityUtil.filterDuplicates(List<T> values, Map<String, ? extends Object> fields)

Does this type of functionality already exist in ofbiz?
