Clinton,

That's awesome! Good job!

May I ask if this field-setter access is something I need to turn on or off? I hope so. I want to enforce my usage to go through methods.

Okay...

I've made the change.  It now uses fields only if a get or set method
doesn't exist.  Of course, the decision is independent for get and
set, so if a set doesn't exist, but a get does, it will use the field
for setting, but the getter for getting.  I've also enabled private
constructor access.

Basically this means, iBATIS now works with POJOs for real... we don't
depend on the JavaBeans spec at all really.  You can use your own
property syntax and private default constructors with parameterized
constructors for programmatic construction.

Pretty cool stuff really.

Cheers,
Clinton

This is my preference now.

The person that asked me about field mappings that originally got me
to work on it last week is of the mind that we should just keep it
simple like this.  Since that was your gut feeling as well as Paul's,
I think we should run with it.

I think we're over-thinking the solution now. Let us come down from
our ivory tower.  :-)
