Change the connection profile associated with an MBO's attributes or
operations to another connection profile of the same type. This allows the MBO developer to
switch to a different data source, assuming the MBO attributes and operations metadata are
identical. For example, MBO developers use a development database data source to develop the
MBO, then another team chooses a different database server with the same
metadata/configuration for testing.
Prerequisites
Change a connection profile binding by selecting a different connection profile of the same data source type. The connection profile to which you are binding must be available.
Task
If you change the connection profile for an MBO definition that also has operations that use the
same connection profile, Unwired WorkSpace prompts you to apply the connection profile change to the operations as well as the definition.
Sybase recommends that you apply the connection profile change to the MBO operations, if not, the operations are applied to a different data source
than the one from which the MBO reads.
- You can modify connection profile to MBO attributes
and operation bindings from the Properties view: there are a number of places from which you can change the connection profile to which the MBO is bound, depending on the context you are in, by selecting the Change Connection Profile button.
The Change Data Source dialog displays. The Data source type field is read-only in this dialog, you can only change the connection profile.
- Select a connection profile from the drop-down list to switch to a different connection profile of the same data source type.
