I get too lazy trying to figure out how to get an ibatis map populated n-levels deep of nested nodes, so I typically just return a map of all values... key: id, value: thObject. Then I just go and manually iterate over the values of the map and add if it has a parentID I find the parent in the map by id and then it as child to the parent. Seem to work pretty well, but maybe there's a more efficient way to build up a tree?
