, including NULL , boolean literals ( TRUE and FALSE ), numeric literals (for example , 100 ), string literals (for example , 'abc' ), enum literals (for example , mypackage.MyEnum.MY_VALUE ), and entity type literals (for example , Country ). Use JPQL literals sparingly. Queries that use parameters

The ability to retrieve managed entities is a key advantage of JPQL. For example , the following ... . Projection of path expressions JPQL queries can also return results that are not entities. For example ... the FROM clause. Nested path expressions are also supported. For example , the following query retrieves

The default name can be overridden by specifying another name ... . For example , the following query returns all pairs of countries that share a common border: SELECT c1

For example , you can add the preceding @NamedQuery to the Country entity class: @Entity ... their named queries by using the JPA 2 Metamodel interface.
