Java JPA：选择“列表中的ATTRIBUTE在列表中>”

Question

I am using JPA and trying to select all childentities ( Product ) of a given List of parents ( Category ). The relationship is Category OneToMany Product . I would like to keep it down to one query and not create a Predicate like product.get("category") == category.get(0) || product.get("category") == category.get(1) || ... product.get("category") == category.get(0) || product.get("category") == category.get(1) || ... product.get("category") == category.get(0) || product.get("category") == category.get(1) || ... .

I have tried the following bit of code, but this does not seem to work (as seen in the stack at the bottom). Does anyone have a suggestion as how to accomplish this?

Code

public List<Product> findProductsBy(List<Category> categories) {
    CriteriaBuilder cb = em.getCriteriaBuilder();
    CriteriaQuery<Product> query = cb.createQuery(Product.class);
    Root product = query.from(Product.class);
    Predicate predicateCategory = product.get("category").in(categories);

    query.select(product).where(predicateCategory);
    return em.createQuery(query).getResultList();
}

Answer 1

What you can do is using the category id instead of the category object (as the error state: object comparison is not supported ):

(Assuming your category id is a Long , you can do the following.)

public List<Product> findProductsBy(List<Category> categories) {
    List<Long> categoryIds = new ArrayList<Long>();
    for(Category category:categories){
        categoryIds.add(category.getId());
    }
    CriteriaBuilder cb = em.getCriteriaBuilder();
    CriteriaQuery<Product> query = cb.createQuery(Product.class);
    Root product = query.from(Product.class);
    Predicate predicateCategory = product.get("categoryId").in(categoryIds);

    query.select(product).where(predicateCategory);
    return em.createQuery(query).getResultList();

}
