Gets a set of connection values that are used to make connections to an FDO provider that permits multiple connections.
virtual MgStringCollection* GetConnectionPropertyValues( string providerName, string propertyName, string partialConnString );
Parameters |
Description |
providerName |
The name of the Fdo feature provider. Permissible values are obtained by calling the GetFeatureProviders Method. |
propertyName |
Property name. |
partialConnString |
The partial connection string to the Fdo provider. |
Returns an MgStringCollection or NULL, if nothing is found.
You connect to the provider using a set of values that is one value short of addressing a source of feature data. This set of values is also known as a "partial connection string". The provider returns a set of values each of which represents a final value needed to connect to feature data. You can now construct a set of "full connection strings", and you can test the validity of each of these using the TestConnection Method. You make a fully functional connection using another variant of the TestConnection Method. Currently, the only use for this method is to list the datastores in an Oracle database. Feature data is stored in a datastore in an Oracle database. This is explained in the section on the Oracle provider in the Connection To Feature Source topic.
