Is it possible to pull one column into a String via addEntity(String.class)?

Question

Java

The bottom line is that the native query is written to return exactly one Yes/No value.
Therefore, I would like to pull out this value in some more beautiful way than:

String result = (String) (((Object[]) list.get(0))[0]);

I was thinking about:

Query query = session.createSQLQuery(queryToExecute).addEntity(String.class);

but nothing came of it. Maybe someone knows how to do it. I don't want to create a single field dummy class just for the sake of it.
