Collection properties in resultMap

[Amad Fida <am...@gmail.com>]

Hi all, 

I have a table which has columns like CutomField1, CustomField2, etc

Now I have a class

Class User {

	private Collection customFields;
	.....
}

How would I map individual columns to single collection property?

Is something like this possible?

  <resultMap id="user" class="User">
    <result property="customFiels[0]" column="CustomField1"/>
    <result property="customFiels[1]" column="CustomField2"/>
    <result property="customFiels[2]" column="CustomField3"/>

	....


Thanks

Amad

It should be possible, but I can't even remember. More importantly, why
would you do that?

If your set is fixed enough to be enumerated to customField1...customField3,
then why wouldn't you just have 3 properties on your class called
CustomField1 ... CustomField3?

You're creating potential for pain in the future with a design like that.

Cheers,
Clinton
