CommonAbstractCriteria	The CommonAbstractCriteria interface defines functionality that is common to both top-level criteria queries and subqueries as well as to update and delete criteria operations.
CompoundSelection<X>	The CompoundSelection interface defines a compound selection item (tuple, array, or result of constructor).
CriteriaBuilder	Used to construct criteria queries, compound selections, expressions, predicates, orderings.
CriteriaBuilder.Case<R>	Interface used to build general case expressions.
CriteriaBuilder.Coalesce<T>	Interface used to build coalesce expressions.
CriteriaBuilder.In<T>	Interface used to build in predicates.
CriteriaBuilder.SimpleCase<C,R>	Interface used to build simple case expressions.
CriteriaDelete<T>	The CriteriaDelete interface defines functionality for performing bulk delete operations using the Criteria API
CriteriaQuery<T>	The CriteriaQuery interface defines functionality that is specific to top-level queries.
CriteriaUpdate<T>	The CriteriaUpdate interface defines functionality for performing bulk update operations using the Criteria API.
Expression<T>	Type for query expressions.
Fetch<Z,X>	Represents a join-fetched association or attribute.
FetchParent<Z,X>	Represents an element of the from clause which may function as the parent of Fetches.
From<Z,X>	Represents a bound type, usually an entity that appears in the from clause, but may also be an embeddable belonging to an entity in the from clause.
Join<Z,X>	A join to an entity, embeddable, or basic type.
ListJoin<Z,E>	The ListJoin interface is the type of the result of joining to a collection over an association or element collection that has been specified as a java.util.List.
MapJoin<Z,K,V>	The MapJoin interface is the type of the result of joining to a collection over an association or element collection that has been specified as a java.util.Map.
Order	An object that defines an ordering over the query results.
ParameterExpression<T>	Type of criteria query parameter expressions.
Path<X>	Represents a simple or compound attribute path from a bound type or collection, and is a "primitive" expression.
PluralJoin<Z,C,E>	The PluralJoin interface defines functionality that is common to joins to all collection types.
Predicate	The type of a simple or compound predicate: a conjunction or disjunction of restrictions.
Root<X>	A root type in the from clause.
Selection<X>	The Selection interface defines an item that is to be returned in a query result.
SetJoin<Z,E>	The SetJoin interface is the type of the result of joining to a collection over an association or element collection that has been specified as a java.util.Set.
