ora-01036 illegal variable name

I know there are related questions, but most of the resolutions I have come across on the web have the same solution, take the semicolon predecessor off your statement in the where clause. However, this won't work for me because I don't have a semicolon.

I am using MyBatis and running NUnit tests.

MyBatisCode

<select id="GetLineNumber" parameterClass="HashTable" resultClass="long">
  <![CDATA[
      SELECT
                     HP.LINE_NUM  
      FROM
                      ODS.HAIL_PLCY_LINE_NUM
      WHERE     
                      PLCY_ID = #PolicyId#
      AND             HCL_ID = #HailCoverageId#
</select>

C# Code: ...

  Hashtable lineNumberHash = new Hashtable
      {
         {"PolicyId",x.PolicyId}
            ,{"HailCoverageId",x.Id}
                 };
    lastDatabaseCoverage.AddRange(IbatisSqlMapper.QueryForList<T>("GetLineNumber", lineNumberHash));

"X" in the above code is an object and the properties PolicyId and Id are valid so please disregard the bit of contextualless information!

Note that I am used to SQL Server so if the Select, From, Where is off then I apologize for the easy fix.

I keep getting the "ORA01036 illegal variable..." message

This is my first question so I don't know how fast they get answered, hopefully fairly quickly though :-)

Thanks in advance!

PICNIC problem.

The reason the CDATA tag wasn't closed is because I was copy/pasting from my code. What I failed to do was post the entire message. I had some of the code commented out. I didn't think that adding comments was a no-no, but after looking at it again I realized that the CDATA tag is a literal.

Taking comments out of the tag (so they aren't being read so literally) fixed the problem. I now have a result mapping issue, but at least I got past this illegal variable nonsense.

Thanks for the help and the wiki article!

The only problem I see is that you need to close the CDATA section that you've wrapped the query in. To do that, change this:

      AND             HCL_ID = #HailCoverageId#
</select>

to this:

      AND             HCL_ID = #HailCoverageId#
  ]]>
</select>
