Ability to specify a directory containing SqlMap XML files
----------------------------------------------------------

         Key: IBATIS-291
         URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IBATIS-291
     Project: iBatis for Java
        Type: New Feature

  Components: SQL Maps  
    Versions: 2.1.7    
    Reporter: Werner Fragner
    Priority: Minor


Currently you can only specify a single SQLMap resource by using the attribute 
'resource' or 'url' in the <sqlMap> element of sql-map-config-2.dtd. It would 
make iBatis SQL Maps more capable for dynamic requirements if you could specify 
a directory containing multiple SQLMap XML files. This could be easily achieved 
by adding the attribute 'directory' to the <sqlMap> element. In addition 
SqlMapConfigParser must be extended to search the given directory for SQL Map 
XML files.

With this new feature you could extend the functionality of your application by 
adding new SQLMap XML files to the application before startup (no application 
rebuild is required). Of course the classes used in the added SQLMap XML files 
must be included in the application classpath separately.
