Re: [dtp-connect-dev] ConnectionInfo Vs. IConnectionProfile

[Lawrence E Dunnell <ledunnel@xxxxxxxxxx>]

The ConnectionInfo interface is the
means to access the SQL Model functionality of a JDBC connection.  There
will undoubtedly be slight changes to the interface early on in DTP development,
however, there is no plan to eliminate this interface.

Subject	[dtp-connect-dev] ConnectionInfo Vs. IConnectionProfile

Hi, 
        I'm a SQL Dev Tools committer. Here I have
a question about the ConnectionInfo class. 
        I found ConnectionInfo is used all over in
RDB and there are some similarities bewteen it and the new IConnectionProfile.
Also I think some of the methods defined in ConnectionInfo is interesting
to SQL Dev Tools, such as: 

/** 
         * @return the database definition associated
to this connection info 
         */ 
        public DatabaseDefinition getDatabaseDefinition();
        
        /** 
         * Share a connection. If there is a shared
connection already, an IllegalStateException will be thrown.
         * If the function succeeds, notification will
be sent out to all registered listeners 
         * @param connection a live JDBC connection
         */ 
        public void setSharedConnection(Connection
connection); 
        
        /** 
         * Retrive the shared connection.
         * @return if no shared connection set, return
null. 
         */ 
        public Connection getSharedConnection();
        /** 
         * Share a database associated to this connection
info. If there is a shared database already, 
         * an IllegalStateException will be thrown.
         * If the function succeeds, notification will
be sent out to all registered listeners 
         * @param database 
         */ 
        public void setSharedDatabase(Database database);
        
        /** 
         * retrieve the shared database
         * @return if no shared databsae set, return
null 
         */            
    
        public Database getSharedDatabase();

etc. 
        My question is: what's the your plan regarding
to this ConnectionInfo object? Will you discard it? or refactor it? and
when? Thanks! 

Best Regards!
