Most JDBC applications connect to Omnidex Environments using Omnidex Connection Strings, however, it is also possible to use ODBC File Datasources. These allow the connection string to be externalized into a file if desired.
ODBC File Datasources can be created using Microsoft's ODBC Data Source Administrator, which launches a wizard for creating datasources in general. Consult this tutorial for instructions about creating datasources using this wizard.
It is also possible to manually create ODBC File Datasources using a text editor. Consult the ODBC File DSN Syntax Specification for instruction on manually creating these files.
