I understand IBatis is trying to do one thing only -- Mapping object to table. However objects and also tables are only meaningful within their relationships to other entities. IBatis is very good product. But it forces users to reinvent this persistence mechanism over and over and over. What a waste! I can see that there will be huge benefit toward to users if this is possible within (or as a plug in) IBatis framework.
