we have had some discussion about a visual mapping tool for ibatis. As of yet, noone on the team has taken it on. There is a tool written for the jasmine ide. I haven't used it, so, i don't know the depth of capability.

Would an Eclipse Plugin help?
I'm starting to do more Eclipse development at work and I'm hoping to do some plugins for some of the ASF groups. I was thinking about doing one for Excalibur first but an iBatis plugin would probably be easier for me to start with. Minimally we could create a specialized editor for sqlmap files. After that we could look at a binding or code generation tool.
I've got other commitments with Excalibur first, but I hope to start on these plugins in May or so.
Do many iBatis users/developers use Eclipse?
