java - spring jpa @Query error, expecting CLOSE, found '(' near

Question

I have following JPQL:

@Query("SELECT su.id, su.nameCn, count(b.id), avg(s.rate), count(concat(b.id, '@', s.user.id)) "
            + "FROM S su, B b, S s where b.st.id = su.id and s.bd.id = b.id and su.mt.id = ?1 group by su.id")

When I add concat(b.id, '@', s.user.id), it shows me:

org.hibernate.hql.internal.ast.QuerySyntaxException: expecting CLOSE, found '(' near line 1, at org.hibernate.hql.internal.ast.QuerySyntaxException.convert(QuerySyntaxException.java:74) ~[hibernate-core-5.1.0.Final.jar:5.1.0.Final] at org.hibernate.hql.internal.ast.ErrorCounter.throwQueryException(ErrorCounter.java:91) ~[hibernate-core-5.1.0.Final.jar:5.1.0.Final] at org.hibernate.hql.internal.ast.QueryTranslatorImpl.parse(QueryTranslatorImpl.java:288) ~[hibernate-core-5.1.0.Final.jar:5.1.0.Final] at org.hibernate.hql.internal.ast.QueryTranslatorImpl.doCompile(QueryTranslatorImpl.java:187) ~[hibernate-core-5.1.0.Final.jar:5.1.0.Final] at org.hibernate.hql.internal.ast.QueryTranslatorImpl.compile(QueryTranslatorImpl.java:142) ~[hibernate-core-5.1.0.Final.jar:5.1.0.Final] at org.hibernate.engine.query.spi.HQLQueryPlan.(HQLQueryPlan.java:115) ~[hibernate-core-5.1.0.Final.jar:5.1.0.Final] at org.hibernate.engine.query.spi.HQLQueryPlan.(HQLQueryPlan.java:76) ~[hibernate-core-5.1.0.Final.jar:5.1.0.Final] at org.hibernate.engine.query.spi.QueryPlanCache.getHQLQueryPlan(QueryPlanCache.java:150) ~[hibernate-core-5.1.0.Final.jar:5.1.0.Final] at org.hibernate.internal.AbstractSessionImpl.getHQLQueryPlan(AbstractSessionImpl.java:302) ~[hibernate-core-5.1.0.Final.jar:5.1.0.Final] at org.hibernate.internal.AbstractSessionImpl.createQuery(AbstractSessionImpl.java:240) ~[hibernate-core-5.1.0.Final.jar:5.1.0.Final] at org.hibernate.internal.SessionImpl.createQuery(SessionImpl.java:1907) ~[hibernate-core-5.1.0.Final.jar:5.1.0.Final] at org.hibernate.jpa.spi.AbstractEntityManagerImpl.createQuery(AbstractEntityManagerImpl.java:291) ~[hibernate-entitymanager-5.1.0.Final.jar:5.1.0.Final]

Answer 1

expecting CLOSE, found (

The term CLOSE here refers to a closing bracket, ).

It would appear that the query parser does not support calling another function inside the count(...).

In other words, the syntax error is here:

SELECT su.id, su.nameCn, count(b.id), avg(s.rate), count(concat(b.id, '@', s.user.id))
                                                               ^

Perhaps you mean to be doing some kind of join, and counting the rows there?
