Creating from properties - JdbcDataContextFactory

If you wish to construct your JDBC DataContext from properties, this is also possible. For instance:

Code Block
language
 
java
final
 
 DataContextPropertiesImpl properties =
 
 new
 
 DataContextPropertiesImpl();

properties.put("type",
 
 "jdbc");

properties.put("url",
 
 "jdbc:postgresql://localhost:5432/mydb");
 
DataContext dataContext =

 
DataContext dataContext = DataContextFactoryRegistryImpl.getDefaultInstance().createDataContext(properties);
 

The relevant properties for this type of instantiation are:
