Question

I need to use an IN clause like the following SQL

SELECT * FROM tableA WHERE colA in (1, 2,3)

How can i do this in EJBQL?

i’ve tryed the following, which obviously failed:

SELECT tab FROM tableA tab WHERE tab.colA in (:colValues)

then in java i did

query.setParameter("colValues","1,2,3")

that gives me the following exception

org.apache.openjpa.lib.jdbc.ReportingSQLException: ORA-01722: invalid number

Answer 1

The problem is when you use :parameter_name in an sql fragment and then call query. setParamter("parameter_name", values) it is expected that values should be some sort of collection. Try this.

List<Integer> values = new ArrayList<Integer>();
values.add(1);
values.add(2);
values.add(3);

query.setParameter("colValues", values);
