Re: Sharing Maps and Configs

I think one small change would go a long way towards making
configuration as flexible as possible.

Remove the <sqlMap> elements from SqlMap.config and allow <sqlMaps> to
specify a URL to a separate maps.config file like:
<sqlMaps url="c:/some directory/myDatabase/TEST/maps.config">
or
<sqlMaps url="c:/some directory/myDatabase/PROD/maps.config">

This way the maps can be defined in a single location. As my example
above shows, it makes it very easy to switch between a test and
production version of the maps. If you are using a DAL you don't have
to modify a bunch of elements in every SqlMap.config for every single
project that is using the DAL. They would all just point to the
version of the maps.config file that they need.
