Rick,
I like the idea of centralize configuration in
Spring.NET. IBatis.NET has too many files,
providers.config, properties.config, SqlMap.config,
and dao.config. I think, one central place is much
better for adopter. Especially, if you have embedded
vs resource mode like:
<sqlMap
resource="${path}/Persistence/Map/Application.xml"/>
OR
<sqlMap embedded="Persistence.Map.Application.xml,
Apc.Core"/>
Also, dao.config is nothing more than just inject dao
implementation. Why not do it in spring.
Anyway, that is just my initial thought. I don't know
enough about both products to make serious
recommendation.
