Luke R. Flesch commented on IBATIS-227: --------------------------------------- I've just experienced the issue described above. I know you previously closed this issue with the following comment: "I don't see any compelling reason why SQL Maps should arbitrarily insert whitespace that was not intended. The solution is to simply add a space between the tag and the SQL text...I can't see that being a problem. Wherever possible, iBATIS favors leaving the SQL as it is typed." The problem is that my IDE, WSAD, strips out leading and trailing whitespace from XML elements when you ask it to format your XML. I doubt that mine is the only editor that does this or that no-one else uses the format function of their editor. I think it would be worthwhile to change the iBATIS code to insert one space if none exist between the 'and' and the start of the SQL clause for dynamic elements. Alternatively, you could check for this condition and print out a more helpful error message. By the way, I think iBATIS is a great package and I appreciate all the work you guys have done on it. - Luke > CLONE -Dynamic SQL from JavaBean property causes malformed SQL > -------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: IBATIS-227 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IBATIS-227 > Project: iBatis for Java > Type: Bug > Components: SQL Maps > Reporter: Luke R.

Inspection of the SQL > shows that a space is omitted between the 'and' and the > condition, i.e. '... andsalutation_id = ...'. > This only occurs when it is a JavaBean property being > accessed. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
