(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

|| operator worked for me in IBatis but not in Mybatis.

In MyBatis i had to use + operator.

SELECT *
FROM Employee
WHERE
name like '%' + #{searchName,jdbcType=NVARCHAR} + '%'
