Named Query with like in where clause

Question

Is it possible to have a like in a where clause in a named query? I am trying to do the following but am getting exceptions

@NamedQuery(name = \"Place.getPla         


        

Answer 1

You can also use CONCAT function

@NamedQuery(name = "Place.getPlaceForCityAndCountryName",
     query = "SELECT p FROM Place p WHERE " +
        "lower(p.city) like CONCAT(:city,'%')");
