Example: Setting client information with the setClientInformation(Properties) API

We can set WAS client information on connections to pass that information to your database with this API.

The following example code calls setClientInformation(Properties) on the com.ibm.websphere.rsadapter.WSConnection object. 

import com.ibm.websphere.rsadapter.WSConnection;
.....
try {
   InitialContext ctx = new InitialContext();
   //Perform a naming service lookup to get the DataSource object.
   DataSource ds = (javax.sql.DataSource)ctx.lookup("java:comp/jdbc/myDS");
  }catch (Exception e) {System.out.println("got an exception during lookup: " + e);}

  WSConnection conn = (WSConnection) ds.getConnection();
  Properties props = new properties();
  props.setProperty(WSConnection.CLIENT_ID, "user123");
  props.setProperty(WSConnection.CLIENT_LOCATION, "127.0.0.1");
  props.setProperty(WSConnection.CLIENT_ACCOUNTING_INFO, "accounting");
  props.setProperty(WSConnection.CLIENT_APPLICATION_NAME, "appname");
  props.setProperty(WSConnection.CLIENT_OTHER_INFO, "cool stuff");
  conn.setClientInformation(props);
  conn.close()


Parameters
