maybe it's a silly question but I cannot find the answer in the docs: How can set a limit to the CriteriaQuery using JPA2?
Thanks

A CriteriaQuery is not an executable Query. You need to create a TypedQuery first using EntityManager.createQuery(criteriaQuery)
. You can then set the max results of this and execute it.
You could define the offset/limit like this:
return em.createQuery(query)
.setFirstResult(offset) // offset
.setMaxResults(limit) // limit
.getResultList();
I usually use:
em.createQuery(criteria).setFirstResult(offset).setMaxResults(max).getResultList();
