Reorder documentation of class-based projection support for JPA Native Queries

[mipo256]

I've created a demo project to demonstrate the problem. It seems that only interface based projections are working fine, but if we want to use class based projections, we have the ConverterNotFoundException problem. Related Stack Overflow thread.

It is expected that the Class Based Projections would work for native queries, as stated in the doc. Well, the doc does not mention specifically that Class Based Projections would work for native queries, but on the contrary it does not mention for what queries it would work, so the assumption is that for all @Query methods.

You find the specifics at the end of the document:

And it’s important to point out that class-based projections do not work with native queries AT ALL. As a workaround you may use named queries with ResultSetMapping or the Hibernate-specific ResultListTransformer

This section comes below Dynamic Projections

Okay, thanks, found it, but nevertheless, I would expect this restriction under class based projection section, not under dynamic projection (to me seems to be far more decent), and honestly, it's not the first time we encounter this issue and according to Stack Overflow discussion, we're not alone.

Any plans to implement this? Should be technically possible since Spring Data JDBC has no problem with class based projections.

I reordered the documentation to find the limitation much earlier.
