Title: Persistance of resizable configuration map

Hi All,

I am trying to persist an object which has as one of its parameters a map of configuration values which are different based on the implementation of the object.

The database solution I have come up with  for this involves having 15 placeholders in one table and a type_id field which references a types table with the names of each of the map parameters for each implementation.

I know this is a clunky database approach, but I would like the number of implementations to be extensible and also the specific configuration values to be searchable at some stage in the future.

I hope this makes sense, Is there a way in iBatis to achieve this kind of persistence?

If I were to use a standard JDBC dao I would select appropriate type and do a map.get() for each of the configuration parameter names.

I'm not sure how to do this in iBatis?

Thanks,

Danny.
