JPA : How to convert a native query result set to POJO class collection

Question

I am using JPA in my project.

I came to a query in which I need to make join operation on five tables. So I created a native query which returns five fields.

if you are using Spring, you can use org.springframework.jdbc.core.RowMapper

Here is an example:

public List query(String objectType, String namedQuery)
{
  String rowMapper = objectType + "RowMapper";
  // then by reflection you can instantiate and use. The RowMapper classes need to follow the naming specific convention to follow such implementation.
}
