17 * Provides a DSL for building and managing HQL strings.
18 * For usage examples see the HqlBuilderTests.
19 * HQL reference see http://docs.jboss.org/hibernate/core/3.6/reference/en-US/html/queryhql.html
20 *
21 * Primary goals:
22 * 1. Easy to read and understand in code.
23 * 2. Easy to read and understand when printed (e.g when displayed in a report).
24 * 3. Easy to execute with correct paginateParams and namedParams.
25 * 4. Easy to change a clause and execute again.
