The "iBatis In Action" text shows how to pass an integer to a mapped statement without using a parameter map: <select id=....> select xxxx where accountId = #value# </select>
Then call the mapped statement with this: account = (Account) sqlMap.queryForObject("...", new Integer(1)); I've tried doing something similar but with two noticeable differences: (1) using: queryForList (2) passing a string as the parameter My select statement has an ORDER BY clause, and the string I pass is the name of a field in the table. The query works fine right now if I put the text string into a map and pass that map to the statement, but I'm trying to do it instead with a simple inline parameter (no parameter map). Here is the line inside my <select> tags. ORDER BY = #sortcrit:CHAR# I followed instructions in the textbook for telling iBatis about the data type. According to java.sun.com, JDBC type CHAR represents a "small, fixed-length character string." Here is my call statement: String sortcrit = "LABEL"; albums = sqlMap.queryForList("getAlbumInfo", sortcrit); I get the following error message when I run this query: java.lang.RuntimeException: Error executing sqlMap query. Cause: com.ibatis.common.jdbc.exception.NestedSQLException: --- The error occurred in swingCat-sqlMap.xml. --- The error occurred while applying a parameter map. --- Check the getAlbumInfo-InlineParameterMap. --- Check the statement (query failed). --- Cause: org.postgresql.util.PSQLException: ERROR: syntax error at or near "=" Is it possible to use a string as an inline parameter? Any idea what I am doing wrong here? Thank you very much for any assistance you can provide. -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/Inline-Parameters---Passing-a-String-tp26733822p26733822.html Sent from the iBATIS - User - Java mailing list archive at Nabble.com. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: user-java-unsubscr...@ibatis.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: user-java-h...@ibatis.apache.org
