Class DataSourceConfigurationManager

java.lang.Object

com.inet.report.config.datasource.DataSourceConfigurationManager

public class DataSourceConfigurationManager
extends java.lang.Object

This is the main class to manage data source configurations in i-net Clear Reports. A datasource configuration defines from which location/ by which way the data for a report will set. For GUI application you can open the DataSource-Manager dialog with DataSourceConfigurationManager.openDataSourceManagerDialog(Frame,DataSourceConfiguration). If a data source configuration is already created, it is easy to configure a report to use this configuration. The datasource configuration will be stored by using java.util.prefs.Preferences.
