Map Class Dialog (JDBC)

The Map Class dialog (JDBC) lets you specify the database tables that you want map this class to. Every class mapping that you create must be associated with exactly one database table.

This dialog contains the following fields:

Name

Defines the name of the class you are mapping.

Limits: Must begin with a letter.

Description

Describes the class you are mapping.

Managed

If unchecked, marks this class as mapped only for the purpose of establishing associations. As a result, Connector Xpress only maps its name and type. Instances of an unmanaged class can be listed and associated with other objects, but cannot be created, edited or deleted.

For compound classes, Connector Xpress selects this field by default, and cannot be cleared.

Schema (Mandatory)

Specifies the schema (for example, tablespace or database) name for the tables displayed in the Table list.

Table (Mandatory)

Specifies the table that represents account/group information in the selected schema.

You must associate every class mapping that you create with exactly one database table.

Extended Properties

Displays an extended set of metadata properties. These fields are displayed when you select the Show extended set of metadata properties on the Connector Xpress Preferences dialog.

Note: For more information, see Extended Metadata Properties.
