Data Source Definitions on Windows

A JDBC-enabled application can connect to a CA Datacom/DB database using the DriverManager class with a URL or using JNDI with a DataSource object. Either technique can reference a data source name similar to an ODBC data source. This data source name (DSN) is defined in the registry, where it is associated with the dictionary name of the catalog defining the SQL schema, a node name identifying the CA Datacom system, and other optional information.
