HOW to use HAVING COUNT(*) with hibernate

Question

I need to create a query and I need COUNT(*) and HAVING COUNT(*) = x.

I'm using a work around that uses the CustomProjection class, that I downloaded somewhere.

This is the SQL that I try to achieve:

select count(*) as y0_, this_.ensayo_id as y1_ from Repeticiones this_
inner join Lineas linea1_ on this_.linea_id=linea1_.id
where this_.pesoKGHA>0.0 and this_.nroRepeticion=1 and linea1_.id in (18,24)
group by this_.ensayo_id
having count(*) = 2

This is the code, where I use the Projection Hibernate class:

critRepeticion.setProjection(Projections.projectionList()
                .add( Projections.groupProperty("ensayo") )
                .add( CustomProjections.groupByHaving("ensayo_id",Hibernate.LONG,"COUNT(ensayo_id) = "+String.valueOf(lineas.size()))
                .add( Projections.rowCount() )
                );

The error is:

!STACK 0
java.lang.NullPointerException

If I comment the line with CustomProjections class, the query work, but I don't get the HAVING COUNT(*) filter in the SQL ...

Basically the query try to retrieve, in a master - detail schema, all the master records where a list of details are simultaneously present, like if you want tho know "which invoices have both products, A and B".

That why if I got 3 items in the IN clause, I need to use HAVING COUNT = 3 clause.

Any idea or suggestion? Best regards,

Answer 1

I figured out the problem. I replace CusotmProjections class, with:

.add( Projections.sqlGroupProjection("ensayo_id", groupBy , alias, types));

where groupBy, alias and types are:

 String groupBy = "ensayo_id" + " having " + "count(*) = " + String.valueOf(lineas.size());
 String[] alias = new String[1]; 
 Alias[0] = "ensayo_id"; 
 Type[] types = new Type[1]; 
 types[0] = Hibernate.INTEGER;

and the magic is on groupby String. –

If someone needs to do it in grails it would be like:

projections {
    groupProperty("id")
    sqlGroupProjection(...)
    rowCount()
}

Where sqlGroupProjection is available since 2.2.0

/**
 * Adds a sql projection to the criteria
 * 
 * @param sql SQL projecting
 * @param groupBy group by clause
 * @param columnAliases List of column aliases for the projected values
 * @param types List of types for the projected values
 */
protected void sqlGroupProjection(String sql, String groupBy, List<String> columnAliases, List<Type> types) {
    projectionList.add(Projections.sqlGroupProjection(sql, groupBy, columnAliases.toArray(new String[columnAliases.size()]), types.toArray(new Type[types.size()])));
}

Here is my sample, it works fine, maybe useful :

My sql query :

select COLUMN1, sum(COLUMN2) from MY_TABLE group by COLUMN1 having sum(COLUMN2) > 1000;

And Criteria would be :

 Criteria criteria = getCurrentSession().createCriteria(MyTable.Class);
  ProjectionList projectionList = Projections.projectionList();
  projectionList.add(Projections.property("column1"), "column1");
  projectionList.add(Projections.sqlGroupProjection("sum(column2)  sumColumn2 ", "COLUMN1 having sum(COLUMN2) > 1000" , new String[]{"sumColumn2"}, new org.hibernate.type.Type[]{StandardBasicTypes.STRING}));
  criteria.setProjection(projectionList);
  criteria.List();
