Database connection property file [message #534765] Thu, 20 May 2010 05:38 Go to next message
Eclipse UserFriend
Hello,

is there a way to create automatically a file, which user can copy somewhere into eclipse (or workspace metada) and have defined a connection to a database with specified driver?

I can not find any file, which would contain information about db connection I made by GUI...

We wanted in our company to configure eclipse automatically with specified connection, so the user can user it after copying some file, rather than configuring it by himself.

Thanks for any help.

Regards

I'm not sure if you can do it via config file, but you can do it programmatically through a plug-in with a startup extension. There is a good explanation here:
