JPA 2 + Criteria API - Defining a subquery



I try to convert a sql query to Criteria API without success so far. I can create two separate queries which return the values I need, but I don't know how to combine them in a single query.





Here is the sql statement which works:







select company.*, ticketcount.counter from company

join

(select company, COUNT(*) as counter from ticket where state<16 group by company) ticketcount

on company.compid = ticketcount.company;







This Criteria query returns the inner query results:







CriteriaBuilder cb = em.getCriteriaBuilder();

CriteriaQuery<intCompany> qTicket = cb.createQuery(intCompany.class);

Root<Ticket> from = qTicket.from(Ticket.class);

Path groupBy = from.get("company");

Predicate state = cb.notEqual(from.<State>get("state"), getStateById(16));

qTicket.select(cb.construct(

intCompany.class, cb.count(from),from.<Company>get("company")))

.where(state).groupBy(groupBy);

em.createQuery(qTicket).getResultList();







In the application I defined a small wrapper/helper class:







public class intCompany{

public Company comp;

public Long opentickets;

public intCompany(Long opentickets,Company comp){

this.comp = comp;

this.opentickets = opentickets;

}

public intCompany(){



}

}







So does anyone has an idea how to get this working?

  1. You have almost everything done.

    //---//
    CriteriaBuilder cb = em.getCriteriaBuilder();
    //Your Wrapper class constructor must match with multiselect arguments
    CriteriaQuery<IntCompany> cq = cb.createQuery(IntCompany.class);
    //Main table
    final Root<Ticket> fromTicket= cq.from(Ticket.class);
    //Join defined in Ticket Entity
    final Path company = fromTicket.get("company");
    //Data to select
    cq.multiselect(cb.count(from), company);
    //Grouping
    cq.groupBy(company);
    //Restrictions (I don't really understand what you're querying)
    Predicate p = cb.lessThan(fromTicket.get("state"), 16);
    //You can add more restrictions
    // p = cb.and/or(p, ...);
    cq.where(p);
    List<IntCompany> results = entityManager.createQuery(cq).getResultList();


    This should work as expected.

Slow Android emulator

I have a 2.67 GHz Celeron processor, 1.21 GB of RAM on a x86 Windows XP Professional machine. My understanding is that the Android emulator should start fairly quickly on such a machine, but for me it does not. I have followed all instructions in setting up the IDE, SDKs, JDKs and such and have had some success in staring the emulator quickly but is very particulary. How can I, if possible, fix this problem?
