How to set fetchSize for iBatis select statement

Answer 1

Yes you can set fetchSize at a higher level and need not worry about doing for every select.

Step 1

Create a file mybatis-config.xml

You can add any value supported in mybatis http://www.mybatis.org/mybatis-3/configuration.html

Step 2

Load this as a resource in your Config file. This is Spring 4 example

@Value("classpath:mybatis-config.xml")
private Resource myBatisResource ;

Step 3 : Pass to you SqlSessionFactoryBean

sessionFactory.setConfigLocation(myBatisResource);

Note: I did this with myBatis 3.3.0. It does not work with myBatis 3.4.4(there is open defect)

This will ensure that all select statements have a fetchSize property assigned to them.
