Connecting to databases using the Data perspective
To create a new connection to an existing
database using the Data perspective:
Open the Data perspective by clicking Window > Open Perspective > Data.
Right-click the Database Explorer and click New
Connection. The New Database Connection wizard
opens.
Follow the instructions in the wizard to provide
connection details and create filters.
It is recommended that
you create your own JDBC connection filters to exclude one or more tables
from relational view. This decreases load time, which can be considerable
for connections to a remote server. You cannot change these filters after
you have created the connection.
Click Finish. The
wizard creates the database connection and a dialog box appears, asking if
you want to copy the database metadata to a project folder.
To associate the new connection with a message
flow project, click Yes and click Browse to
navigate to the appropriate message flow project.
