Note: The Database option has been replaced by Schema Map. The Database attribute will continue to be supported for this release, but will be deprecated in subsequent versions of the product.
Specifies the file name prefix the driver uses to create or locate the set of files that define the Object mapping and the embedded database used by the connection.
Valid Values
prefix | path+prefix
where:
prefix
is the file name prefix for the embedded database. For example, if Database is set to a value of JohnQPublic, the embedded database files that are created or loaded have the form johnqpublic.xxx.
path+prefix
is a relative or absolute path appended to the file name prefix. The path defines the directory the driver uses to store the newly created database files or locate the existing database files. For example, if Database is set to a value of C:\data\db\johnqpublic, the driver either creates or looks for the database johnqpublic.xxx in the directory C:\data\db. If you do not specify a path, the current working directory is used.
Notes
The driver parses the User ID value and removes all non-alphanumeric characters. For example, if User ID is specified as John.Q.Public, the value used for Database is JohnQPublic.
