I assume you're using SIMPLE datasource.  With that data source, the
isolation level is set as a driver default.  I just did a quick test
with HSQLDB and the default seems to be TRANSACTION_READ_COMMITTED - a
middle of the road isolation level.  Maybe there is some setting on
the Sybase driver that will allow you to change the default isolation
level?

Alternatively, you can do it in code like this:

try {
  sqlMapClient.startTransaction(Connection.TRANSACTION_READ_UNCOMMITTED);

  -- do some work
} finally {
  sqlMapClient.endTransaction();
}

If you are using some other datasource (like JNDI), then you'll need
to look to that datasource for information about changing the
isolation level.
