M.H. Avegaart commented on IBATIS-133: -------------------------------------- I completely agree that adding support for methods and constructors is a good idea. However, I have some remarks about the suggested implementation: 1. What is the signature attribute for? Reflection only needs the method name (name) and the parameters types (javaTypes). 2. I would choose a <constructor> element for the constructor instead of a <method type="constructor"> element. This would allow a DTD validator to check that the resultMap only contains ONE constructor. > ResultMap Method Mapping > ------------------------ > > Key: IBATIS-133 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IBATIS-133 > Project: iBatis for Java > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: SQL Maps > Affects Versions: 2.1.0 > Reporter: Brandon Goodin > > Method mapping should be supported in ibatis to map to non-javaBean methods. > Following are some whiteboard ideas for this: > A standard verbose mapping - > <resultMap> > <method > name="methodName" > signature="propertyA,propertyB" > javaTypes="integer,string" > jdbcTypes="INTEGER,VARCHAR" > columns="PROPERTY_A,PROPERTY_B" /> > </resultMap> > If types map cleanly between columns and java types some configuration can be > avoided - > <resultMap> > <method > name="methodName" > signature="propertyA,propertyB" > columns="PROPERTY_A,PROPERTY_B" /> > </resultMap> > column Indexes should also be supported - > <resultMap> > <method > name="methodName" > signature="propertyA,propertyB" > columnIndexes="3,8" /> > </resultMap> > we could also use the method mapping for constructors as well. Only one > constructor method type can exist per resultMap. type="method" would be the > default unspecified method type. > <resultMap> > <method > type="constructor" > name="methodName" > signature="propertyA,propertyB" > columnIndexes="3,8" /> > </resultMap> > Something else to consider is how a method signature can be mapped to both > complex objects and simple objects. Perhaps we need to go with a more verbose > mapping. > <resultMap> > <method type="standard" name="methodName"> > > > > </method> > </resultMap> > Not sure if we would want to support both or just one type.
