• JDBC Connection Manager Extension Control

    By Jennifer Carey 1 decade ago

    I can't quite figure out when to use the 'JDBC Connection Manager' Extension Control.  In the XpagesJDBC.nsf examples, I see it used on a couple different xpages, but I'm not sure how you determine if you use the Control, or just refer to your connection directly in your Data Source tab.  I just started using the new extension library; I must be missing something. Can anyone help me understand?  Thanks so much for your help.

    • When you want to control the connection

      By Philippe Riand 1 decade ago

      You should use this control when you you want to share the connection between multiple data sources and commit all the changes in one single transaction. Or when you want to control some of the parameters used to create the connection.

      In many case, you won't need it and can just work with a connection directly referenced from the data source.
