Kevin Sutter resolved OPENJPA-2468.
-----------------------------------

    Resolution: Incomplete

You mention that this capability is documented somewhere.  Can you clarify 
where you saw this documentation?  I just checked the OpenJPA documentation and 
I don't see the CONCAT being used with the IN operator.  And, when I check the 
JPA 2.0 spec, the BNF seems pretty clear that this capability is not defined.  
Excerpts from the BNF:

comparison_expression ::=
string_expression comparison_operator {string_expression | 
all_or_any_expression} | ...

comparison_operator ::= = | > | >= | < | <= | <>

string_expression ::= string_primary | (subquery)
string_primary ::=
state_field_path_expression |
string_literal |
input_parameter |
functions_returning_strings | ...

functions_returning_strings ::=
CONCAT(string_primary, string_primary {, string_primary}*) | ...

The key is what comparison_operators are defined for string comparisons.

If you are finding other examples or interpretations of the spec, please 
provide them and re-open this JIRA.  Thanks.

> I was triying to use functions in my query as per the documentations however 
> was getting errors when Functions are used with IN clause, same functions do 
> work with comparator!!
> Consider 2 entities
> Employee[empId, lastName, firstName, mgrID] and 
> Manager[mgrId, empId]
> Failing query
> Select e from Employee e where  CONCAT(firstName, lastName) IN 
> ('First1Last1', 'First2Last2')
> working Query
> Select e from Employee e where  CONCAT(firstName, lastName) = 'First1Last1' 
> OR CONCAT(firstName, lastName) = 'First2Last2'
