Return Multiple Types from a Single ibatis Query

Question

I have a search form that needs to include results from two different tables. The tables have no relationship to each other and our separate. In my example scenario, we have gas

Answer 1

After much googling, I figured out the answer to my own question.

The ibatis discriminator will pick between the gasStation and groceryStore classes.

<resultMap id="searchResultMap" class="Store">
     <discriminator column="storeType" javaType="java.lang.String">
           <subMap value="grocery" resultMap="groceryStoreMap"/>
           <subMap value="gasStation" resultMap="gasStationMap"/>
     </discriminator>
</resultMap>

I would then edit my query to add storeType in the select field and create a resultMap for the groceryStore and gasStation.

Note - to figure this out, I read this stackoverflow question.
