Problems with making a query when using Enum in entity

Question

I have the following in a Question entity:

@NamedQuery(name = \"Question.allApproved\",
    query = \"SELECT q FROM Question q WHERE q.status = \'APPROVED\'\         


        

Answer 1

I think you should use your (fully qualified) Status enum instead of literal value, so something like this: (assuming your Status enum is in com.myexample package)

@NamedQuery(name = "Question.allApproved", 
            query = "SELECT q 
                     FROM Question q 
                     WHERE q.status = com.myexample.Status.APPROVED").
