Note:
• Unlike Derby, SQLFire does not use a databaseName. Instead of a "database" the connection is to a
distributed system. The distributed system is uniquely identified by either the mcast-port or the
locators. See Configuration Properties on page 319.
•
The subprotocol in the URL sqlfire: ends with a colon (:) and the list of connection attributes starts
with a semicolon (;).
•
Setting mcast-port to 0 without specifying locators starts a "loner" (single member) distributed
system. See Configuration Properties on page 319.
• The list of connection attributes is not parsed for correctness. If you pass an incorrect attribute, it is
simply ignored.
•
Setting the host-data attribute to true (default) specifies that data should be hosted in this member.
To avoid hosting data in a member, such as in a peer client, set host-date to false.
