URL Connection Property Parameters

Specify the values for the jConnect driver connection properties when you define a URL.

Note: Driver connection properties set in the URL do not override any corresponding connection properties set in the application using the DriverManager.getConnection method.

Set a connection property in the URL, append the property name and its value to the URL definition. Use this syntax:

jdbc:sybase:Tds:host:port/database?
     property_name=value

Set multiple connection properties, append each additional connection property and value, preceded by “&.” For example:

jdbc:sybase:Tds:myserver:1234/mydatabase?
   LITERAL_PARAMS=true&PACKETSIZE=512&HOSTNAME=myhost

If the value for one of the connection properties contains “&,” precede the “&” in the connection property value with a backslash (\). For example, if your host name is “a&bhost,” use this syntax:

jdbc:sybase:Tds:myserver:1234/mydatabase?
   LITERAL_PARAMS=true&PACKETSIZE=512&HOSTNAME=
   a\&bhost

Do not use quotes for connection property values, even if they are strings. For example, use:

HOSTNAME=myhost

not:

HOSTNAME="myhost"
