------------------------------ 1.0.0 Alpha- 07/10/2004 ------------------------------ - dao.config, sqlMap.config, providers.config must be place in the base directory of the application domain (same dir as app.config or web.config) - removed tag 'providers' from config file.
Just wondering what the rationale for the above is? I can always modify the source code to meet my needs (which leads to upgrade headaches) but I want to understand why configuration choices aren't left up to the user. I'm using iBATIS for a web service and a (separate) web application that are being developed for production. iBATIS is part of my data access layer which is contained in a class library assembly. Coupling the configuration files with the apps/services somewhat defeats the purpose of my de-coupling the data layer.
