whats wrong with this simple HQL syntax?

Hi i am trying to execute this simple HQL query to get a list of files from my database using:

private static final String SQL_GET_FILE_LIST = "select filename, size, id, type from fileobject";

@Override
public List<FileObject> getFileList(String type) {
    // TODO Auto-generated method stub
    List<FileObject> files = hbTemplate.find(SQL_GET_FILE_LIST);
    hbTemplate.flush();
    return files;
}

but i keep getting this exception:

Well, first of all, as the trace says, fileobject is not mapped but FileObject is. So change your HQL query into:

select filename, size, id, type from FileObject

Second, since you're using projections, you won't get a List<FileObject> but a List<Object[]>. So your code should be:

private static final String SQL_GET_FILE_LIST = "select filename, size, id, type from FileObject";

@Override
public List<Object[]> getFileList(String type) {
    // TODO Auto-generated method stub
    List<Object[]> files = hbTemplate.find(SQL_GET_FILE_LIST);
    hbTemplate.flush();
    return files;
}

Or, if you want to get a type safe result, you could use a constructor expression (assuming your class is providing the appropriate constructor):

select new FileObject(filename, size, id, type) from FileObject

And then you could use your current code.

private static final String SQL_GET_FILE_LIST = "select new FileObject(filename, size, id, type) from FileObject";

@Override
public List<FileObject> getFileList(String type) {
    // TODO Auto-generated method stub
    List<FileObject> files = hbTemplate.find(SQL_GET_FILE_LIST);
    hbTemplate.flush();
    return files;
}

You're specifying the table name, not the class name; they differ in case. Try this:

private static final String SQL_GET_FILE_LIST = 
     "select filename, size, id, type from FileObject";

Admittedly it's been a while since I've done any Hibernate, but I suspect that's the problem...
