I recently just added some "better" APIs for this. Unfortunately they're still not fantastic, but they're getting there. It's a slow refactoring process, because historically iBATIS was a purposely XML focused framework.
The idea was to use this new API to offer new configuration options like annotations, convention based configuration and also just using this Java API to configure it directly. The remaining refactorings involve cleaning up the method signatures for things like adding new mapped statements....they currently have like 15 parameters....just a raw extract method refactoring. But at least all of the types are safe etc, not just string based like the XML configuration is. It's getting there. I'll keep the list posted on progress and it will probably be available by the next release.
