You can use connection properties to customize the driver for your environment. You can use these connection properties with either the JDBC Driver Manager or a JDBC data source. For a Driver Manager connection, a property is expressed as a key value pair and takes the form property=value. For a data source connection, a property is expressed as a JDBC method and takes the form setProperty(value). For a complete list of supported properties, refer to "Connection property descriptions" in the Progress DataDirect for JDBC for Jira User's Guide.
The following tables summarize the essential connection properties used to configure the driver using basic authentication. Properties that only apply to certain session types are indicated on the table.
Note: All connection property names are case-insensitive. For example, Password is the same as password. Required properties are noted as such.
Note: The data type listed for each connection property is the Java data type used for the property value in a JDBC data source.
