I suggest you to convert your jar in Spring 5 and MyBatis. I think it's the better solution in terms of mantenibility and compatibility. Migrate to iBatis to MyBatis does not a big problem, I think.
I had a working project that uses Spring 5 and My-Batis 3. I encountered some problem to configure it, but in the end, I solved everything. Just check the POM configuration and the Spring configuration.
POM configuration
In the following lines of code, you can read the project pom (I removed useless part of the file for your problem).

Just remember to check always the dependencies tree to avoid to have indesiderate Spring jars.
Spring configuration
I have different file for Spring configuration. I attach only the interesting one.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:context="http://www.springframework.org/schema/context"

<property name="user" value="aaa"/>
<property name="password" value="bbb"/>
<property name="connectionCachingEnabled" value="true" />
</bean>
<bean id="transactionManagerNG" class="org.springframework.jdbc.datasource.DataSourceTransactionManager">
<property name="dataSource" ref="dataSource" />
</bean>
<bean id="sqlSessionFactoryNG" class="org.mybatis.spring.SqlSessionFactoryBean" name="SqlSessionFactoryOrarioStandardDao">
<property name="dataSource" ref="dataSource" />
<!-- 1. Where is the xml for query's definitions -->
<property name="mapperLocations" value="classpath:com/dummy/persistence/dao/*.xml" />
<!-- 2. My-batis configuration -->
<property name="configLocation" value="classpath:mybatis-config.xml"></property>
<!-- 3. My-batis type alias package -->
<property name="typeAliasesPackage" value="com.dummy.persistence.model" />
</bean>
<!-- 4. needed to parse Java DAO interfaces -->
<bean class="org.mybatis.spring.mapper.MapperScannerConfigurer">
<property name="basePackage" value="it.insiel.sanita.farmacieng.persistence.dao" />
<property name="sqlSessionFactoryBeanName" value="sqlSessionFactoryNG"/>
</bean>
<tx:annotation-driven/>
</beans>
In the above Spring file you will find:
- How I defined the location where put XML for SQL queries (comment 1)
- How I use My-batis configuration (comment 2)
- How I defined the type alias package (comment 3)
- How I defined the DAO interfaces
Last but not least the My-batis configuration file mybatis-config.xml, that I put in the same folder of Spring configuration file:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE configuration PUBLIC "-//mybatis.org//DTD Config 3.0//EN" "http://mybatis.org/dtd/mybatis-3-config.dtd">
<!-- http://mybatis.org/dtd/ -->
<configuration>
<settings>
<setting name="logImpl" value="LOG4J"/>
<setting name="cacheEnabled" value="true"/>
<setting name="defaultStatementTimeout" value="3000"/>
<setting name="mapUnderscoreToCamelCase" value="true"/>
<setting name="jdbcTypeForNull" value="NULL" />
</settings>
</configuration>
