I set up a SqlResultMapping for the User entity.

@SqlResultSetMapping(name="User", entities={
 @EntityResult(entityClass=User.class, fields = {
 @FieldResult(name="userid", column="userid"),
 @FieldResult(name="username", column="username")
 })}
)
@NamedNativeQuery(name="GetUsers",
 query="select userid, username from user",
 resultSetMapping="User")

Then I want to query the a list of users.

List userList = em.createNamedQuery("GetUsers").getResultList();

It returns me a list of objects and when I tried to cast the object to User, it throws ClassCastException.

User user = (User) userList.get(0)

Is there a way that I can get User class type back?

Thanks,
