I'm a student and my grasp of JSP/J2EE, iBatis, and Spring is a little iffy. I'm attempting to learn all of them as part of a project and I'd appreciate any help you could offer me (and to save time, yes, I've read the developer's guide pdf).
I followed the Spring tutorial to create their little inventory management demo-app. It works fine with JDBC and HSQL and I mostly understand what's going on. The URL for that tutorial is here: http://static.springframework.org/docs/Spring-MVC-step-by-step/ Now I'm trying to replace the JDBC DAO with an iBatis DAO. I think I've got everything put together correctly, but my ProductDao (the parent class to my SqlMapProductDao) has a method: public List<Product> getProductList(); It was created in this step of the tutorial: http://static.springframework.org/docs/Spring-MVC-step-by-step/part5.html#step5.4 How do I create an equivalent function in the SqlMapProductDao? I made a sql map that looks like this (my columns and properties match, no need for result maps): <select id="selectAllProducts" resultMap="ProductResult"> select * from products </select> The following is _completely_ wrong but at least shows what I'd like it to do: public List<Product> getProductList() throws DataAccessException { logger.info("Getting products! (iBatis)"); this.sqlMapClient.startTransaction(); try { List<Product> allProducts = this.sqlMapClient.queryForList("selectAllProducts"); return allProducts; } catch (SQLException ex) {} this.sqlMapClient.commitTransaction(); } based off this: http://static.springframework.org/spring/docs/2.5.x/reference/orm.html#orm-ibatis-straight Can anyone help? I can post more of the source I'm working with if you think it will help. Thanks. -- Dan Guido
