Composite keys in MyBatis <collection> mappings

Question

I am unable to pass a composite key to a MyBatis <collection> element (using version 3.2.7). The MyBatis documentation states:

Note: To deal with composite keys, you can specify multiple column names to pass to the nested select statement by using the syntax column="{prop1=col1,prop2=col2}". This will cause prop1 and prop2 to be set against the parameter object for the target nested select statement.

However, all my attempts to implement this produce the Exception

org.mybatis.spring.MyBatisSystemException: nested exception is org.apache.ibatis.reflection.ReflectionException: Error instantiating class java.lang.Integer with invalid types () or values (). Cause: java.lang.NoSuchMethodException: java.lang.Integer.<init>()

The collection (which resides in another ResultsMap) is:

<collection property="foos" ofType="FooObject"
    column="{param1=user_id,param2=foo_id}" select="getFoosByUser" >
        <id property="userId" column="user_id" />
        <id property="foo" column="foo_id" />
        <result property="fooName" column="foo_name" />
</collection>

It should return an ArrayList of Foo objects. The composite key is user_id and foo_id. The select query is:

    <select id="getFoosByUser" parameterType="Integer" resultType="FooObject">
        SELECT
          user_id AS userId,
          foo_id AS fooId, 
          foo_name AS fooName
        FROM foo_table
        WHERE user_id = #{param1}
        AND foo_id = #{param2}
    </select>

The query works correctly if I only use one parameter, e.g. removed foo_id=#{param2} and then use column=user_id in the collection, but I cannot work out how to structure the column attribute correctly for two keys. Any ideas?

MyBatis is confused by using parameterType when there are more than one parameter. Modify you query mapping like this:

<select id="getFoosByUser" resultType="FooObject">
    SELECT
      user_id AS userId,
      foo_id AS fooId, 
      foo_name AS fooName
    FROM foo_table
    WHERE user_id = #{param1}
    AND foo_id = #{param2}
</select>
