The purpose of MyBatis escape characters is to instruct MyBatis on how to handle special characters in SQL statements. In SQL statements, certain special characters (such as single quotes or percentage signs) may cause issues like SQL injection. Using escape characters can help prevent these problems from occurring. For example, escape characters can be used to escape single quotes, so they are recognized as regular characters in the SQL statement rather than being treated as part of the SQL statement. Escape characters can be used in strings or parameters in SQL statements to ensure the safety and correctness of data.
