(How) can I use “LIKE” in SQL queries with MyBatis safely and DB-agnostic?

Question

In MyBatis, you mark the places where parameters should be inserted into your SQL like so:

SELECT * FROM Person WHERE id = #{id}

Answer 1

You could use bind syntax

Quoting Official documentation

The bind element lets you create a variable out of an OGNL expression and bind it to the context. For example:

  
  SELECT * FROM BLOG
  WHERE title LIKE #{pattern}
