RE: [Xdoclet-user] @jboss:finder-query vs. @ejb:finder

[chowatt]

I don't know about JBoss 1.3 but we are using JBoss 2.4.4 and I am doing this:   First define the ejb:finder as: @ejb:finder signature="java.util.Collection findAllCustom()"   And then define  jboss:finder-query as: @jboss:finder-query name="findAllCustom" query=publicationGroupID < 3 order by description"   C.   -----Original Message----- From: Andronica Teodorescu [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, March 13, 2002 1:29 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Xdoclet-user] @jboss:finder-query vs. @ejb:finder Hello,   Can someone please explain how to use these 2 tags?   I am trying to set-up a custom finder for a CMP entity bean. The bean is deployed into JBoss1.3 (alpha) server. Also, I would like the finder to return objects ordered by a given field. I know, this can be done afterwards, but still ...   So, in @ejb:finder tag, I can define my query using EJB-QL , which doesn't support "ORDER BY". On the other hand, in @jboss:finder-query tag I have the option to specify the query (JAWS syntax) and the "order" field. Question: where the query should be defined? In @ejb:finder, or @jboss:finder-query or in both?   Using the jboss tag, the generated jaws.xml file contained the finder query method, and the order field as well. But the result list is not ordered. Further more, the query that is performed seems to be the query from @ejb:finder tag, not from @jboss:finder-query tag.   If I do not specify the query for @ejb:finder, at runtime an exception is thrown by JBoss. (javax.ejb.FinderException: Unknown query).     Here the code for the bean  * @ejb:bean  *    name="publication/PublicationGroup"  *    display-name="Models a Publication Group"  *    type="CMP"  *    cmp-version="2.x"  *    jndi-name="ejb/publication/PublicationGroup"  *    view-type="local"  *    schema="PublicationGroup"  *    primkey-field="publicationGroupID"  * @ejb:transaction type="Required"  * @ejb:finder signature="java.util.Collection findAll()"  * @ejb:finder signature="java.util.Collection findAllCustom()"  * @ejb:pk class="java.lang.Long" generate="false"  *  * @jboss:table-name "publication_group"  * @jboss:finder-query  *      name="findAllCustom"  *      query="publicationGroupID < 3"  *      order="description"  *      read-ahead="true"  * @jboss:create-table "false"  * @jboss:remove-table "false"  * @jboss:tuned-updates "true"  * @jboss:read-only "false"     Thanks in advance, Andronica
