    Description

      When a user goes to the trouble of creating a query to retrieve some information it is a common enough scenario that this will need to be performed again during the application lifetime. Being able to save a query (once created) as a named query (in the PMF) would mean that applications can skip the generation step off for subsequent runs.

      Suggested API change would be to add a single method to Query.

      Query q = pm1.newQuery("SELECT p FROM Person p WHERE firstName == :param");
      q.saveAsNamedQuery("PeopleWithName");
      q.execute("John");

      ... (some time later)

      Query q = pm2.newNamedQuery(Person.class, "PeopleWithName");
      q.execute("Brian");
