Using LIKE % in Hibernate

Question

How do I use LIKE % in Hibernate. I want to use a SQL with LIKE % in my hbm.xml file. I have 2 queries which I am consolidating to 1.

Answer 1

Maybe the user_id is not a char/varchar? You have to convert the user_id with str() to character data first!

Example:

SELECT *
FROM abc.def_vw a
WHERE user_id = ?
AND str(user_id) LIKE '%' || ?
