Hibernate CollectionOfElements EAGER fetch duplicates elements

Question

I have a class called SynonymMapping which has a collection of values mapped as a CollectionOfElements

@Entity(name = \"synonymmapping\")
public class Synony         


        

Answer 1

I have faced this problem and I solved it using

criteria.setResultTransformer(Criteria.DISTINCT_ROOT_ENTITY);

This clears out the duplicates which are caused by the join made to the child tables.
