Description

There are currently 3 differrent naming conventions in place to specify a property:

1) dao.config

<daoSessionHandler id="SqlMap">
<property name="resource" value="${path}/sqlMap.config"/>
</daoSessionHandler>

2) sqlMap.config

<properties>
<property key="SELECT_KEY" value="SELECT @@IDENTITY" />
</properties>

3) properties.config

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<settings>
<add key="SELET_KEY" value="SELET @@IDENTITY" />
</settings>

It may be less confusing if everything were standardized using this notation:

<property name="foo" value="bar" />

The above exanples using the improved syntax:

1) dao.config

<daoSessionHandler id="SqlMap">
<property name="resource" value="${path}/sqlMap.config"/>
</daoSessionHandler>

2) sqlMap.config

<properties>
<property name="SELECT_KEY" value="SELECT @@IDENTITY" />
</properties>

3) properties.config

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<properties>
<property name="SELECT_KEY" value="SELECT @@IDENTITY" />
</properties>
