The Accelerator uses the information in the ConnectionParams files to generate a connection string used to contact your database. If required, you have the ability to add your own custom text to the end of the generated connection string.
Below is an example using a demo system’s connection parameters file that shows how to add arbitrary text to the end of your connection string. Note: You will need to add any required semi-colons yourself.
Original Connection Parms
<server id="Development">
<add key="ServerType" value="Mainframe" />
<add key="DataSource" value="10.10.1.2" />
<add key="Database" value="TestDB" />
<add key="UserID" value="Username" />
<add key="Password" value="xxxxxx" />
<add key="Collection" value="DATA" />
</server>
Original Connection String
"Server=10.10.1.2;Database=TestDB;UserId=Username;Password=xxxxxx;CurrentSchema=DATA;"
With CustomConfiguration
<server id="Development">
<add key="ServerType" value="Mainframe" />
<add key="DataSource" value="10.10.1.2" />
<add key="Database" value="TestDB" />
<add key="UserID" value="Username" />
<add key="Password" value="xxxxxx" />
<add key="Collection" value="DATA" />
<add key="CustomConfiguration" value="APPID=TestApp;" />
</server>
New Connection String
