Thank you Mr. Butler! I'm already using abator to speed up our development process, and actually for the time being, after I write custom queries I just create a small script to execute in our db that will generate the resultmaps, if it can be any help, here's the query i used in oracle: SQL> CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW v_temp AS SELECT b.dname, b.loc, a.* FROM emp a, dept b WHERE a.deptno = b.deptno; View created. SQL> SELECT '<result property="' || UPPER (column_name) || '" column="' || UPPER (column_name) || '" javaType="' 2 || DECODE (data_type, 3 'NUMBER', DECODE (data_scale, 0, 'int', 'double'), 4 'VARCHAR2', 'string', 5 'VARCHAR', 'string', 6 'DATE', 'date', 7 'CHAR', 'string', 8 'LONG', 'string') 9 || '" jdbcType="' || data_type || '" ' 10 || CASE 11 WHEN UPPER (data_type) IN 12 ('CHAR', 'VARCHAR2', 'LONG', 'VARCHAR') 13 THEN 'nullValue=""' 14 END 15 || '/>' resultmap 16 FROM all_tab_columns 17 WHERE LOWER (owner || '.' || table_name) = 'v_temp' OR LOWER (table_name) = 'v_temp'; RESULTMAP ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ---------------------------- <result property="LOC" column="LOC" javaType="string" jdbcType="VARCHAR2" nullValue=""/> <result property="EMPNO" column="EMPNO" javaType="int" jdbcType="NUMBER" /> <result property="ENAME" column="ENAME" javaType="string" jdbcType="VARCHAR2" nullValue=""/> <result property="JOB" column="JOB" javaType="string" jdbcType="VARCHAR2" nullValue=""/> <result property="MGR" column="MGR" javaType="int" jdbcType="NUMBER" /> <result property="HIREDATE" column="HIREDATE" javaType="date" jdbcType="DATE" /> <result property="SAL" column="SAL" javaType="double" jdbcType="NUMBER" /> <result property="COMM" column="COMM" javaType="double" jdbcType="NUMBER" /> <result property="DEPTNO" column="DEPTNO" javaType="int" jdbcType="NUMBER" /> <result property="DNAME" column="DNAME" javaType="string" jdbcType="VARCHAR2" nullValue=""/> 10 rows selected. SQL> DROP VIEW v_temp; View dropped. SQL>

Abator does not support this now. However, I have been thinking about this feature too. I'd like to add some way to declare table relationships and have Abator generate the appropriate queries and objects. It would be a little different from what you've specified...I would use the iBATIS "group by" and imbedded object support. It is a complex problem because of the many different types of relationships (1-1, 1-*, *-*, etc.), but it would be interesting to solve it. For now, the best thing to do is extend the Abator generated objects and result maps, and then write custom queries. Jeff Butler
