Project Structure Setup

Establish the package structure as follows:

src/main/java/com/example/
├── mapper/
│   └── UserMapper.java
src/main/resources/
└── com/example/mapper/
    └── UserMapper.xml

Creating the Mapper XML

Create a MyBatis mapper XML file in src/main/resources/com/example/mapper/:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<mapper namespace="com.example.mapper.UserMapper">
</mapper>

Creating the Mapper Interface

Create a Java interface file in src/main/java/com/example/mapper/ with the same name as the mapper namespace. The development environment is now ready for implementing the core functionality.
