How can I do a JOIN FETCH in criteria api

Hibernate ORM

Just remove the productItemJoin and use the productItemFetch instead.

CriteriaBuilder builder = em.getCriteriaBuilder();

CriteriaQuery<Ereturn> criteria = builder.createQuery( Ereturn.class );

Root<Ereturn> er = criteria.from(Ereturn.class);
Fetch<Ereturn, ProductItem> productItemFetch = er.fetch("productItems", JoinType.LEFT);

List<Predicate> predicates = new ArrayList<>();

predicates.add(builder.equal( productItemFetch.get( "status" ), "RECEIVED"));

criteria.where(
        builder.and(predicates.toArray(new Predicate[predicates.size()]))
);

List<Ereturn> ers = em.createQuery( criteria )
    .getResultList();
