[Xdoclet-user] @ejb.select problems with JBoss

[Patrick Bakker]

Hello.   I’ve been trying to get the following select method code to work in an EJB I call Product:   /**  * @ejb.select  *          signature="java.util.Collection ejbSelectNameMatch(String nameMatch)"  *          query="SELECT OBJECT(p) FROM Product p WHERE p.name LIKE ?1"  * @ejb.transaction type="Supports"  */ public abstract java.util.Collection ejbSelectNameMatch(String nameMatch) throws FinderException; /**  * @ejb.home-method  */ public java.util.Collection ejbHomeSelectByNameMatch(String nameMatch) { java.util.Collection productList = null;       try       {             productList = ejbSelectNameMatch(nameMatch); }       catch (FinderException e)       {}       return productList; } // ejbHomeSelectByNameMatch   However, when I deploy it to a JBoss 3.2.3 server it fails to compile the EJB-QL, stopping on the LIKE ?1 portion of the EJB-QL. Here is the exact error message:   Error compiling EJB-QL statement 'SELECT OBJECT(p) FROM Product p WHERE p.name LIKE ?1'; - nested throwable: (org.jboss.ejb.plugins.cmp.ejbql.ParseException: Encountered "1" at line 1, column 51. Was expecting:     <STRING_LITERAL> ...     )]   The odd thing is that I have finder methods using the same syntax which compile and work fine. The only difference between the finder and select method that I’ve noticed is that I can supply an SQL-specific query to override the otherwise generated query for the finder methods. I have not yet found a way to do the same for the select methods. Is this possible?   Does anybody have any suggestions on what to do here?   Patrick
