CMP Entity Bean with ejb-ql finder methods and INFORMIX database

Question

Hi,
I have some CMP Entity Beans with finder methods defined in ejb-ql. In my ejb-jar, within <entity> definitions I have something like:
    <entity>
      <abstract-schema-name>BeanName</abstract-schema-name>
      <cmp-field><field-name>fieldOne</field-name></cmp-field>
      <cmp-field><field-name>fieldTwo</field-name></cmp-field>
      <query>
        <query-method>
          <method-name>findAll</method-name>
          <method-params></method-params>
        </query-method>
        <ejb-ql>SELECT OBJECT(o) FROM BeanName o</ejb-ql>
      </query>
    <entity>
And in persistent.xml:
<db-properties>
     <data-source-name>datasource_name</data-source-name>
</db-properties>
<entity-bean>
     <ejb-name>BeanName</ejb-name>
     <table-name>table_name</table-name>
     <field-map key-type="NoKey">
     <field-name>fieldOne</field-name>
     <column><column-name>column_one</column-name></column>
      </field-map>
     <field-map key-type="NoKey">
     <field-name>fieldTwo</field-name>
     <column><column-name>column_two</column-name></column>
      </field-map>
      <finder-descriptor>
          <method-name>findAll</method-name>
          <method-params/>
     </finder-descriptor>
Once deployed, on server side, I can found a java source file (with corresponding compiled class file) in path:
j2ee/cluster/server0/apps/companyName/MyEARApp/EJBContainer/temp/temp38837373733/route/to/package/
with names:
BeanName0_0pm.java
BeanName0_0PM.class
and the generated java file contains this code:
  public java.util.Enumeration ejbFindAll() throws javax.ejb.FinderException, javax.ejb.EJBException  {
    TransactionContext tc = pm.getTransactionContext();
    Connection conn = null;
    PreparedStatement pSt = null;
    ResultSet ejb_rs = null;
    int status = javax.transaction.xa.XAResource.TMSUCCESS;
    try {
      conn = pm.getConnectionForFindMethod();
      pSt = conn.prepareStatement("SELECT \"O\".\"COLUMN_ONE\",\"O\".\"COLUMN_TWO\", FROM \"TABLE_NAME\" \"O\"");
      ejb_rs = pSt.executeQuery();
I'm trying to call this method but it throws a SQLException when preparing the statement.
It seems that Informix does not like this SQL syntax because of upper case names, doble quotes on table alias, or something else.
When editing persistent.xml in netweaver, I can define the element <datasource-vendor> as ORACLE, SAPDB, MS_SQL_SERVER, DB2_UDB_AS400 or DB2_UDB_OS390 but INFORMIX is not an accepted value.
Is there any way to define how this SQL query is build?
Thanks in advance.

The return type of the finder method defined in the remote home interface is either the entity bean's remote interface or a collection of objects implementing the entity bean's remote interface. The return type of the finder method defined in the local home interface is either the entity bean's local interface or a collection of objects implementing the entity bean's local interface
