Of course, after being stuck on it for a while, I figured it out right
after I posted the question:
<typeAlias alias="product" type="com.foo.Product" />
<resultMap id="result" class="product">
<result property="name" column="name" />
<result property="description" column="description" />
<result property="price.amount" column="amount" />
<result property="price.currency" column="currency_code" />
</resultMap>
It appears that the Product class must have a Price instance that is
initialized, not null. In other words it looks like iBATIS doesn't do:
Price price = new Price();
price.setAmount(amount);
Product product = new Product();
product.setPrice(price);
But instead does:
Product product = new Product();
product.getPrice().setAmount(amount);
Take this all with a grain of salt - I'm new to iBATIS!
