FetchMode in JPA 2 CriteriaQuery

jpa-2.0

Solution

Try this:

CriteriaQuery<Person> c = cb.createQuery(Person.class);
Root<Person> person = c.from(Person.class);
person.fetch("address");
c.select(person);

Assuming there is a one-to-one relationship between your `Person` entity and an `Address` entity.

Problem

I'm currently in the process of switching from Hibernate to pure JPA 2 (which by the way turned out to be much more time consuming than I initially expected). The biggest problem I'm having so far is finding a way to force eager loading of lazy properties. With Hibernate this was done using: `criteria.setFetchMode("person", FetchMode.JOIN);`. Is there any way to do this with JPA 2?
