Mauricio-

I see what you mean. No, we currently do not have any simple way of building a query using an object-based API, a la TopLink's Expression classes.

It would probably be simple to create one that simply builds up the JPQL underneath, but to my knowledge no one has ever done this.

I know that i can do "select x from Entity x order by x.someField" but
i wanna know it there some methods in the API where i can use
Expressions like in TopLink Extensions.. to do the same("select x from
Entity x order by x.someField") but in this way:
exp.addOrdering(exp.get("someField").ascending());

again sorry for my english

Well, sorting is a standard part of the JPQL, which OpenJPA fully
supports (e.g., "select x from Entity x order by x.someField"). See
http://openjpa.apache.org/docs/latest/manual/
manual.html#jpa_overview_meta_orderby

Was there any specific functionality that you were looking for in the
form of extensions? OpenJPA does extend the spec in many useful ways,
all of which should be covered in the documentation.
