Case Sensitive Finders

[ahmetalpbalkan]

Hi there guys,

When I list finders of an object (here I call "Short") using command

finder list --class com.turkcellteknoloji.kisalt.domain.Short

I see something like that:

...
findShortsByHash(String hash)                                             
findShortsByHashEquals(String hash) 
...

I thought that those two differ from each one with case-sensitivity. The finders that those two do generate are below:

@SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
    public static Query Short.findShortsByHash(String hash) {
        if (hash == null || hash.length() == 0) throw new IllegalArgumentException("The hash argument is required");
        EntityManager em = Short.entityManager();
        Query q = em.createQuery("SELECT Short FROM Short AS short WHERE short.hash = :hash");
        q.setParameter("hash", hash);
        return q;
    }
    
    @SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
    public static Query Short.findShortsByHashEquals(String hash) {
        if (hash == null || hash.length() == 0) throw new IllegalArgumentException("The hash argument is required");
        EntityManager em = Short.entityManager();
        Query q = em.createQuery("SELECT Short FROM Short AS short WHERE short.hash = :hash");
        q.setParameter("hash", hash);
        return q;
    }

are completely equal as far I see.

What is the way to create case-sensitive finders? Why "finder" functionality has those two duplicate things?

I need reply ASAP.
Regards.

Actually I still do not see any differences but solved by changing MySQL column collation from utf8_general_ci (case-insensitive) to utf8_bin.
