EGL Reference Guide for iSeries


SQL-database access

To determine the user ID and password to use for accessing an SQL database, the EGL debugger considers the following sources in order until the information is found or every source is considered:

  1. The build descriptor used at debug time; specifically, the build descriptor options sqlID and sqlPassword.
  2. The SQL preferences page, as described in Setting preferences for SQL database connections; at that page, you also specify other connection information.
  3. An interactive dialog that is displayed at connection time. Such a dialog is displayed only if you select the checkbox Prompt for SQL user ID and password when needed.
