[jira] [Commented] (OPENJPA-273) Native functions in JPQL; functions available in more clauses

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OPENJPA-273?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13498113#comment-13498113 ] 

Rade Martinović commented on OPENJPA-273:
-----------------------------------------

Are there plans to revisit this feature? I was looking at implementing all of the PostgreSQL inets operators.

I generally liked what EclipseLink did with [FUNC|http://wiki.eclipse.org/EclipseLink/UserGuide/JPA/Basic_JPA_Development/Querying/Support_for_Native_Database_Functions#FUNC] and [SQL|http://wiki.eclipse.org/EclipseLink/UserGuide/JPA/Basic_JPA_Development/Querying/Support_for_Native_Database_Functions#SQL].

On above mentioned documentation page FUNCTION keyword is stated as in JPA 2.1 draft?

> JPQL has rather limited support for functions, in two ways. First, only a limited number of commonly-available functions are available in the language, and second, functions can only be used in a limited number of places in the grammar. This can be, well, limiting.
