Native SQL query for an Hibernate entity using @Formula results in NullPointerException

I've got an simple Hibernate entity for which I use the @Formula annotion:

    @Id
private Long id;

private String name;

@Formula("(select count(f.*) from foo f where f.id = id)")
private long bar;

When I try to load an entity with a native SQL Query:

EM.createNativeQuery("SELECT f.*, count(something) as bar FROM foo f WHERE f.name = '...'", Entity.class)

I get an NullPointerException:

java.lang.NullPointerException

at org.hibernate.impl.SQLQueryImpl.list(SQLQueryImpl.java:179)
at org.hibernate.ejb.QueryImpl.getResultList(QueryImpl.java:236)

When I remove the @Formula attribute all works fine.

I found this bug report: BugReport. But for me it's not clear how to solve my problem.

Indeed, this seems to be the problem reported in HHH-2225 (that HHH-2536 duplicates). Unfortunately, the issue is not fixed and I'm afraid you'll have to either use HQL or submit a patch (you can start with voting on the issue but I wouldn't expect a fast resolution given that this issue is almost four years old).
