Hi all, now that ibatis 3 supports type-safe mapper interfaces that make a nice interface to the repository/dao tier, it would be desirable to allow for multiple parameters to be passed, so that application designers would not be constrained while designing their layer interfaces. For example, I would prefer:
List<User> findCommonFriends(User user1, User user2) instead of List<User> findCommonFriends(Map<String,User> users) or List<User> findCommonFriends(UserPair users) It just requires a trivial modification in MapperMethod and a simple mechanism to access positional parameters to get it working. For example, MapperMethod could create a Map and put the first argument under the key "first", the second one under "second", etc. That is, positional access "by name". Of course, in case the number of arguments were only one, the usual mechanism would follow. What do you think? Personally I belive that this very simple change will add some degrees of freedom to interface designers.
