Hi,

is it possible to access a field of an EntityBean that is mapped to an user defined type (according to the instructions in the Wiki http://wiki.jboss.org/wiki/Wiki.jsp?page=UserTypeMapping) in finder methods?

For example:

@ejb.finder
 signature="java.util.Collection findByColor(ColorEnum color)"
 query="SELECT OBJECT(c) FROM Car AS c WHERE c.color = ?1"

Searching the forum for this problem I found two issues addressing the problem,
1. http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browseJBAS-2507 - support for <, <=, > and >= comparisons for types mapped with user-type-mapping

and

2. http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browseJBAS-1893 - Finders that use user-type-mappings are broken.

The description of the first issue says:

Types mapped with user-type-mapping are mapped to a single column, so, it makes sense to also support comparisons other than = and <>.

Because of the bold text I assume that the current JBoss releases support "=" and "<>" comparisons in finder methods.

Unfortunately I was not able to figure out how it can be achieved.

Can anybody point me to the right direction?
