10. HQL functions: index, maxindex, minindex    forum.hibernate.org

Found the problem / solution. I had my collection defined as a List on the parent entity, but I had no @IndexColumn specified. As soon as I add this then all of these functions work. Maybe it's a tip that could be added to the Hibernate EntityManager documentation in chapter 7.8? Cheers, Damian.

For my current project, I'm considering using formulas for the runtime computation of some statistical attribute values, because I need them in some of my queries - until it turns out that this runtime-computation is too slow, we don't want to compute them in a job and store them in the db.
