DefaultConnectionFormat (DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST={HostName})(PORT={PortName}))(CONNECT_DATA=(SID={SIDName})))

The default database connection string used when configuring OpenComms Database connections. The example contains 3 place holders that are prompted for when creating the connections.

{HostName} – This value will be prompted for when creating the connection. A default value can be added by defining a new variable named DefaultHostName in this config file.

{PortName} – This value will be prompted for when creating the connection. A default value can be added by defining a new variable named DefaultPortName in this config file.

{SIDName} – This value will be prompted for when creating the connection. A default value can be added by defining a new variable named DefaultSIDName in this config file.

DefaultHostName {Not included in the delivery. Must be added by the admin} The default value for the database connection HostName variable.
DefaultPortName 1521 The default value for the database connection PortName variable.
DefaultSIDName {Not included in the delivery. Must be added by the admin} The default value for the database connection SIDName variable.
BufferSize 20.5 A buffer to apply to the boundary generated from the Node’s graphical features.
ProjectSettingsFileName BatchGlobalRecalcProjects.xml The name of the file holding project settings such as:OpenComms Username, Seed filename, workspace project name, etc.
CommsPasswordMode 0

How the GUI for BatchGlobalReCalc obtains the username and password.

Valid values are:

0 = Prompt for password.

1 = Use fixed value of “focus” 2 = Read the stored password.

Note: This mode only affects the BatchGlobalReCalc GUI. It does not affect the loading of the OpenComms Coax product within MicroStation. This is still accomplished through the Geospatial Administrator schema file.
