Get current month Criteria in Hibernate

Question

I am transforming my jdbc connections to Hibernate Criteria and I have this query:

select sum(tran_amt) from   mytable where tran_date >= trunc(sysdate, 'mm');

The where criteria part is the place am stuck.

Answer 1

Define date as java variable, and compare it to the criteria value. Eg, depending on criteria version of course:

Predicate predicate = criteriaBuilder.ge(from.get("trainDate"), new Date());
