Correct me if I'm wrong, isn't the code example from the V1 src and not V3? thanks, Vince

In addition I altered the InitMapper method to look something like this:DomSqlMapBuilder builder = new DomSqlMapBuilder();XmlDocument sqlMapConfig = Resources.GetEmbeddedResourceAsXmlDocument("fully.qualified.embedded.resource.SqlMap.config, SomeAssembly");_Mapper = builder.Configure(sqlMapConfig); Make sure you mark your config files as embedded resources. With my projects I do not ship any raw .xml/.config files, they are all bundled inside a library.Hope that helps.Chirs On Wed, Jan 14, 2009 at 11:06 AM, Robin Silver <[email protected]> wrote: Hey all, I have 4 facets to my application, Web, Test, Services, Data. Web – the website Test – the token test project… ;) Services – interface between web and underlying persistence layer (and additional services) Data – my data model, POCO's etc. Assume the scenario where there is a "List All Customer's" button on my page. Admin User clicks it and web calls CustomerService.ListAllCustomers(). This in turn calls the iBatis structure sort of like… ArrayList al = (ArrayList)Mapper.Instance().QueryForList("SelectAll", null); The SqlMap.config and CustomerMapping.xml files are in my Services project. When I run this, I get the error: Unable to load file via resource "SqlMap.config" as resource. Cause : Could not find file 'C:\Projects\TestProject\TestProject.Web\SqlMap.config'. It seems to want to load the config from the calling project (web), not the project in which the actual code resides(services). When I look at the NPetStore example, the config files are in the web also. My question is, is there any way to configure it to look for files in the services project instead? I don't want to have any reference to IBatis in my Web if at all possible.
