How do I connect to a database using JDBC filter

#Caché

hi all,

I am looking to make a JDBC connection to my Intersystems Cache using the JDBC driver 2.0.0.

I see the connection format is as "

   jdbc:Cache://<host>:<port>/<namespace>

What I really want to do is filter additionally by a certain database, i.e. connect my consuming application to a database under the namespace.

how can I do that? what will be the format

First start off by looking at the following documentation...

What you use for your connection string all depends on the driver you are using. In the past I have used Microsoft, Oracle, and jTDS JDBC drivers. Currently I am using jTDS because it allows me to use integrated Authentication. so my strings are a little long...

jdbc:jtds:sqlserver://(server name):(port)/(database);instance=xx;domain=xxxx;useNTLMv2=true;cacheMetaData=true;prepareSQL=2;

is just an example.

Hi Scott,

thanks for your response. I have looked at the given documentation. What I am missing is in the connection string, where do I specify the database/Schema as a filter? This format only connects to a namespace , can I pass an additional parameter of the schema-name or database name ?

   jdbc:Cache://<host>:<port>/<namespace>

I would believe the only way to put a schema filter in would be within your query and not in the connection string.

I advice solving your problem by tightening security.

Your app user should have access only to the tables needed for the application to run.

If the user doesn't have any additional/admin roles, he won't see any other tables.
