title: Inserting data in one table using HQL in Hibernate
body: <p>I was reading the Hibernate HQL tutorial and found that HQL doesn't support <code>INSERT INTO..VALUES..</code> but <code>INSERT INTO..SELECT..</code> i.e. HQL only support insert from another table.  </p>
  
  <p>Suppose I want to insert same values in one table and that data is not from any other table i.e. the values are not in any other table.Then how can I do that in HQL?</p>
  
  <p>Also, would like to know the rational behind such restrictions in HQL?</p>
