Answer 1

Formerly, when using the assignment operator in Native Query, Hibernate threw an exception.Hibernate supports escaping the colon char not to treat it as a parameter. So, You need to escape with a backslash . : " \\\\:= "

Note that no spaces are allowed before and after the reference placeholder.
