90 Administering ColdFusion Server
Connecting to OpenIngress Databases
ColdFusion lets you access Computer Associates OpenIngress databases from UNIX,
via ODBC drivers.
Configuring OpenIngress Options (UNIX)
If ColdFusion Server is installed on a Solaris server, you can configure OpenIngress as a
ColdFusion data source using an ODBC driver.
Database Info Path — The name, including the full path, of the database to
which you want to connect.
Visual FoxPro Database — Connect to a Visual FoxPro
database (.dbc file) and to all the tables and local views in the
database.
Free Table Directory— Connect to a directory of free tables,
that is, tables not associated with any particular.dbc file.
Driver Settings Collating Sequence — Select the collating sequence you want
to use. The collating sequence determines the sequence in
which the fields are sorted.
Exclusive — When this check box is selected, the driver opens
the Visual FoxPro database exclusively when you access data
using this data source. Other users cannot access the
database or the tables in the database while the database is
opened exclusively. Tables within the exclusively opened
database are opened as SHARED. This option is not valid when
the "Free Table Directory" option is selected.
Fetch data in background — When this check box is selected,
records will be fetched in the background (progressive
fetching). Otherwise, ColdFusion will wait until all records in
the result set are fetched.
