The rest of the code for Seller and its annotations might make it a bit
easier... have you annotated selcatId getter with a @Column?
I don't think its that (and I'm not sure if JPA enforces having a
relationship defined when you use a join in the EJBQL like that), but
I'd probably tackle it a different way and put a @ManyToOne relationship
on Seller back to SelCat, and in the query just use: "select s from
Seller s where s.category = :pugdog" or along those lines, keeps the
queries simpler and less fragile.
