Hibernate: How do I rewrite this criteria to HQL?

I want to write HQL, where I find out if Company has Persons(employees) with some of given names. I've managed to do that with criteria:

public List<Person> namesInCompany(Company company, Session session,
            String... names) {
        return session.createCriteria(Person.class)
                .add(Restrictions.in("name", names))
                .add(Restrictions.eq("company", company))
                .list();
    }

Now, I'd like same for HQL. I am using named queries, but I am having trouble how to pass array or list of strings (or anything) as parameter for named query. Here's my attempt, that doesn't work atm.

<query name="namesInCompany">
            <query-param name="company" type="sk.xorty.task.Company"/>
            <query-param name="names" type="java.util.List"/>
            <![CDATA[
            from Person p
                where p.company = :company
                and p.name in (:names)
            ]]>
        </query>

I'm getting ClassCastException

java.lang.ClassCastException: [Ljava.lang.String; cannot be cast to java.lang.String
    at org.hibernate.type.descriptor.java.StringTypeDescriptor.unwrap(StringTypeDescriptor.java:40)

That is normal, because I specified wrong type for query-param names. I don't know what to put there :/

Test case for better understanding of this开发者_如何学运维 service:

assertTrue (2 == service.namesInCompany(someCompany, session, "jon", "josh").size());

That means, that either "jon" or "josh" work at someCompany.

Thanks for help

EDIT

JB Nizet proposed code for service.namesInCompany. Here it is:

public List<Person> namesInCompany(Company company, Session session, 
            String... names) {
        Query namesInCompany = session.getNamedQuery(
                "sk.xorty.task.Person.namesInCompany");
        namesInCompany.setParameter("company", company);
        namesInCompany.setParameter("names", names);
        return namesInCompany.list();
    }

You have two problems:

1. You declare the parameter as java.util.List, but you pass an array of Strings (a varargs argument is in fact an array)
2. You must use setParameterList, and not setParameter, to pass a collection of values.
