The following is an example of the definition of a named query * in the Java Persistence query language: * *

 *    @NamedQuery(
 *            name="findAllCustomersWithName",
 *            query="SELECT c FROM Customer c WHERE c.name LIKE :custName"
 *    )

 *    @PersistenceContext
 *    public EntityManager em;
 *    ...
 *    customers = em.createNamedQuery("findAllCustomersWithName")
 *            .setParameter("custName", "Smith")
