DBconnectInformation

Synopsis

A DBconnectInformation group describes a connection with a database.

Description

A DBconnectInformation group describes a connection with a database. Its subobjects include all of the connection specifications except the user password as well as a connect status indicator.

This group typically obtains the values for its subobjects dynamically, from the connection descriptor for the current connection via a pointer in the module to that descriptor. It is incorporated into many Database Kit modules as a way to keep track of the connection in which the current SQL statement is executing.
