            <many-to-many column="ID_B" class="B"/>
        </bag>

回答1:

The order-by clause should contain the SQL snippet you would use to order the list of items. If your ordering criteria is not located in the table T_B in your example, then you probably won't be able to accomplish what you want. On the other hand if B contains a C and its always a one to one relationship, you could define a view in the DB the aggregates the tables and gives you a column to sort on.

I though order-by is specified in your query? no?

exp:

from Document fetch all properties order by name
