As some of you will know I am a huge fan of MyBatis. I have used it in a lot of projects and it never failed me. I like how you are in control of the SQL and the flexibility this brings by mapping result sets to classes instead of mapping tables to classes.

Recently I wanted to map some columns from a table to actual typed properties of an object, and some columns to aproperty of type Map within that same object. Consider the following class:


public class Person {
    private String firstName;
    private String lastName;

    private Map dynamicProperties;

    // Getters and setters omitted.
}

and the following query:

select firstname, lastname, pref_1, pref_2, pref_3 from person;

The following resultmap maps the result of the query to the Person class:

<resultMap id="personDynamicProperties" type="map">
        <result column="pref_1" property="pref_1"/>
        <result column="pref_2" property="pref_2"/>
        <result column="pref_3" property="pref_3"/>
    </resultMap>

    <resultMap id="personResult" type="Person">
        <result column="firstname" property="firstName"/>
        <result column="lastname" property="lastName"/>
        <association property="dynamicProperties" resultMap="personDynamicProperties"/>
    </resultMap>
MyBatis
