DTP FAQ
Revision as of 12:45, 1 October 2009 by Bfitzpat.redhat.com (Talk | contribs)
This page should be a repository for all those "Frequently Asked Questions" or FAQs posted on the DTP newsgroups, mailing lists, and whatnot.
Connectivity
Q: How do I programmatically access an existing connection profile?
A: This is pretty simple:
IConnectionProfile profile = ProfileManager.getInstance().getProfileByName("myprofile");
Q: How do I connect to an existing connection profile programmatically?
A: Again, pretty simple:
IConnectionProfile profile = ProfileManager.getInstance().getProfileByName("myprofile"); IStatus status = profile.connect(); if (status.equals(IStatus.OK)) { // success } else { // failure :( if (status.getException() != null) { status.getException().printStackTrace(); } }
Q: How do I get the raw JDBC Connection from my connected connection profile?
public java.sql.Connection getJavaConnectionForProfile (IConnectionProfile profile) { IConnection connection = ProfileConnectionManager.getProfileConnectionManagerInstance().getConnection(profile,"java.sql.Connection"); if (connection != null) { return (java.sql.Connection) connection.getRawConnection(); } return null; }
