I just picked this up from InfoQ. What do you think?
=====================
Blogger Patrick Lightbody noted "I could see
JDBC 4.0 replacing my need for iBatis" after reading another blog post on JDBC 4.0
functionality. JDBC 4.0 includes basic O/R mapper functionality that
eases the repetitive task of copying ResultSet data into objects. It
does not handle inheritance or table relations however.

Patrick's a good guy and a respected developer. I appreciate his opinion. Obviously, this is only useful for people running JDK 5 or possibly only JDK 6. And of course, Annotation support would be an almost brainless effort to implement for iBATIS.
Your thoughts?Clinton
