Hibernate 3 sql-query not working

I have had a problem using order by on one of my mappings.

So as an attempted solution I have tried upgrading the application to Hibernate3, and tried to use the sql-query, so that I could use my own sql statement to load the object.

For some reason it is not working as hibernate is still generating its own SQL and ignoring the fact that I have specified loader in the class mapping. Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong.

The documentation seems very precise on how to use this, so any help would be most appreciated.

Failing this I may have to switch over to Ibatis so that I can get complete control of the SQL, as im pretty stuck at the moment, and all im trying to do is retrieve shopping baskets in description order?
