I am confused about using $ vs #
. I didn't found any guides for this. I used them as
name = #{name}
, name like '%${word}%'
, order by name ${orderAs}
,where name = #{word}
Sometimes , these are work fine but at the sometimes , parameters aren't included or gave me error like
org.apache.ibatis.reflection.ReflectionException: There is no getter
for property named 'name'.......
So, I'd like to know when to use $
or #
?
Following the myBatis
guidelines #{}
is used in your sql statements.
If you take a look any of MyBatis Reference in the Section Mapper XML Files it says explicity:
Notice the parameter notation:
#{id}
Otherwise ${}
is for
1- Configuration properties.
For example:
<properties resource="org/mybatis/example/config.properties">
<property name="username" value="dev_user"/>
<property name="password" value="F2Fa3!33TYyg"/>
</properties>
Then the properties can be used like next:
<dataSource type="POOLED">
<property name="username" value="${username}"/>
<property name="password" value="${password}"/>
</dataSource>
2- String Substitution ${}
(Parameters section):
By default, using the #{} syntax will cause MyBatis to generate
PreparedStatement properties and set the values safely against the
PreparedStatement parameters (e.g. ?). While this is safer, faster and
almost always preferred, sometimes you just want to directly inject a
string unmodified into the SQL Statement. For example, for ORDER BY,
you might use something like this:
ORDER BY ${columnName}
Here MyBatis won't modify or escape the string.
NOTE It's not safe to accept input from a user and supply it to a
statement unmodified in this way. This leads to potential SQL
Injection attacks and therefore you should either disallow user input
in these fields, or always perform your own escapes and checks.
So definitively in name like '%${word}%' or
order by name ${orderAs}` you need to use String substitution not a prepared statement.
