Compare Date entities in JPA Criteria API

Question

Using JPA 2 with EclipseLink implementation.

I\'m trying to build a dynamic query which should bring me some records persisted after a given date.

Answer 1

I was getting a similar error but with the syntax predicates.add(cb.greaterThan(article.get(Article_.created), since)); and found this page. The cause for me, turned out to be that I had upgraded my project from Java 1.7 to 1.8, and in the process had configured Maven to compile for Java 1.8 as well. I simply had to change Maven compiles back to 1.7, while keeping the rest of the project at 1.8, to fix the error.
