Answer 1

Few JPA implementations have built-in support for date/time functions.

• EclipseLink

  EclipseLink supports EXTRACT allowing any database supported date/time part value to be extracted from the date/time. The EXTRACT function is database independent, but requires database support.

  EXTRACT(YEAR, model.currencyExchangeDate), but it requires EclipseLink 2.4.x

  FUNC allows for a database function to be call from JPQL. It allows calling any database functions not supported directly in JPQL.

  To call the DB function MyFunc(a, b, c) use FUNC('MyFunc', a, b, c).

  You can try FUNC('YEAR', currencyExchangeDate) to call 'YEAR' function.

• Hibernate

  In HQL, you can have date function YEAR(date), MONTH(date), DAY(date) to extract required details. Other time functions supported are HOUR(date), MINUTE(date), SECOND(date).

• Criteria API

  CriteriaBuilder#function() : Create an expression for the execution of a database function.

  CriteriaQuery cq = cb.createQuery(IptExchangeratelines.class); Root exRateLine = cq.from(IptExchangeratelines.class); cq.where(cb.equal(cb.function("year", Integer.class,
exRateLine.get(exRateLine_.currencyExchangeDate)), year) .and(cb.equal(cb.function("month", Integer.class, exRateLine.get(exRateLine_.currencyExchangeDate)), month)));
