Dan Turkenkopf commented on IBATIS-586:
---------------------------------------

How about a compromise to your compromise?  

A single string underneath the columnOverride but it's parsed by Ibator and 
stored as actual properties?

If we make ColumnOverride extend PropertyHolder, then all that's needed is to 
write the parsing logic.  I'd prefer something where the framework handles the 
parsing because it would make it a lot easier to use third-party plugins 
without worrying (as much) if they conflicted with other plugins.

If you're okay with that approach I can make the changes tonight.

> Allow custom properties for columns

> Ibator allows you to create nest custom property tags at the table level 
> which are quite useful in configuring plugins.
> However there's no way to provide the same capabilities on a column by column 
> basis.
> The use case that drove me to add this feature is the need to capitalize 
> certain columns (first name and last name, etc) but not all the columns in 
> the table.
> The attached patch adds an optional <column> tag underneath each <table>.  
> The column tag supports the nesting of property tags underneath it for custom 
> properties.  It's possible that the ignoreColumn and columnOverride tags 
> could be subsumed by the column tag but it's not necessary.
> An alternate approach would be to create <columnProperty> tags that have the 
> column and the property name and value defined as a single tag.
