How would I write SELECT TOP 25 sql query in Spring data repository

A quick question, because I am sure this is something silly. I have the following query which I can execute in NetBeans sql command window:

SELECT TOP 25 * FROM ARCUST_BIG  WHERE arcustno<='300000' ORDER BY arcustno DESC

My goal is to put put it in my ArcustRepository class:

public interface ArcustRepository extends JpaRepository {

Arcust findByPrimaryKey(String id);

@Query("SELECT COUNT(a) FROM Arcust a")
Long countAll();

@Query("SELECT TOP 25 a FROM Arcust a WHERE a.arcustno<='?1' ORDER BY a.arcustno DESC")
List<Arcust> findByTop(String arcustno);
}

However, that findBytop query doesn’t seem to work and when I start my service with tomcat7 returns this:

Answer

# Pure SQL

Use “Limit”

SELECT * FROM ARCUST_BIG 
WHERE arcustno<='300000' ORDER BY arcustno DESC Limit 0, 25

Note: JPA supports creation of the Native query by using method createNativeQuery() OR by using the annotation @NamedNativeQuery JPA Native Query select and cast object object

# JPA

List<Arcust> findTop25ByArcustnoLessThanOrderByArcustnoDesc(String arcustno);
