I am trying to get generics to work using custom type handlers. I have it working with simple "known" types. For example, adding a handler for a Nullable(Of DateTime) would look something like this...

<typeHandler

type="System.Nullable`1[[System.DateTime]]"

     dbType="datetime"

callback="ATG.Database.TypeHandlers.NullableDateTimeTypeHandlerCallback, ATG.Database"/>


This works great. If you have to further specify the generic type, ibatis runs into problems. For example

<typeHandler

     type="System.Nullable`1[[ATG.Money, ATG.Money]]"

callback="ATG.Database.TypeHandlers.NullableMoneyTypeHandlerCallback, ATG.Database"/> This fails inside the function SplitTypeAndAssemblyNames. The function simply splits on the ',' to find the dll to load. If I change this function to check if it is a generic type string it works fine.

if (typeAssemblyIndex < 0 || originalTypeName.Contains("`1[["))
Is there an issue doing this?  If not can it be added to the core code?

Thanks
Michael
