while fetching records i have a requirement where i need to fetch records where name = “john” OR name = “paul”, so basically i am trying to nget all records who have names as john or paul. I am not able to do the same. Please guide.

List students = sess.createCriteria(student.class)
    .add( Restrictions.eq("name", "John") )
    .add( Restrictions.eq("name", "Paul")) )
    .list();

This is the non working code.

Answer 1

Try:

List students = sess.createCriteria(student.class)
   .add( Restrictions.in("name", new String[] { "John", "Paul" } ) )
   .list();

PS. I recommend you using QueryDSL than Criteria API.
