Params property

Applies to
TIB_Connection

Declaration
Property Params : TIB_StringList;

Description
This property gives direct access to the connection parameters stored in the string list. It is not necessary to use this property since all of its settings are correlated using other more convenient, type checked properties.

If there is an existing connection it will not be closed by making changes to this property. Cnages made to this propert will affect the other related properties that resolve to this string list based storage. Any changes made to it will not take effect until the next connection is established.

It could be a good way to strip a password out of memory after a connection has been obtained.

Use these Delphi constants as index references for the Values[ ] array:


IB_USER_NAME

IB_CHARACTER_SET
IB_MESSAGE_FILE
IB_FORCED_WRITES
IB_BUFFERS
IB_PAGE_SIZE
IB_RESERVE_PAGE_SPACE
IB_PROTOCOL
IB_DB_KEY_SCOPE

Blank is default or none.

IB_TRUE and IB_FALSE can be used for the boolean settings.
