GreaterThanOrEqualTo against a Date

Question

Can anyone give me direction on how to use a CriteriaBuilder to create a >= statement against a date, using the greaterThanOrEqualTo method.
:mydate >= effDate
Thanks,
Jay

Answer 1

Something like:
EntityManager em = getEntityManager();
CriteriaBuilder cb = em.getCriteriaBuilder();
CriteriaQuery<Employee> query = cb.createQuery(Employee.class);
Root<Employee> employee = query.from(Employee.class);
query.where(cb.greaterThanOrEqualTo(employee.get("effDate"), myDate));
List<Employee> result = em.createQuery(query).getResultList();
