MyBatis Batch Updates: Efficiently Update Multiple Records

MyBatis provides a convenient way to perform batch updates using the 'foreach' statement. This allows you to update multiple records in a single database operation, significantly improving efficiency compared to individual updates.

Here's an example of how you can use batch updates in MyBatis:

Define a mapper interface with the update method:

@Mapper
public interface MyMapper {
    void updateBatch(List<MyObject> objects);
}

In your mapper XML file, define the update statement and use the 'foreach' statement to iterate over the list of objects:

<update id="updateBatch" parameterType="java.util.List">
    UPDATE my_table
    SET column1 = #{item.column1},
        column2 = #{item.column2}
    WHERE id = #{item.id}
</update>

In your service or DAO class, inject the mapper interface and call the update method:

@Autowired
private MyMapper myMapper;

public void batchUpdate(List<MyObject> objects) {
    myMapper.updateBatch(objects);
}

Finally, call the batchUpdate() method with a list of objects to update:

List<MyObject> objectsToUpdate = new ArrayList<>();
// Populate the list with objects to update

batchUpdate(objectsToUpdate);

This will execute a batch update statement for each object in the list, updating the specified columns in the 'my_table' table based on the object's properties.

Note: Make sure to configure MyBatis to use batch updates in your database connection settings to take advantage of the batch update feature. This configuration typically involves setting a batch size parameter in your database connection pool.
