BE THE CODER > iBATIS > Basic Examples > Get Records Less Than specified value

The following example shows getting student records who's age less than specified value. The attribute parameterClass="int" allows us to pass student age as parameter which would substitute #value# in the SQL. Since SQLMap is an XML document the symbols <, >, etc. cannot be used directly. We need to embed such symbols inside <![CDATA[ ]]>
