If I develop a Smart Service plugin, I can pass in a javax.naming.Context object

guozhangy over 10 years ago

If I develop a Smart Service plugin, I can pass in a javax.naming.Context object using Constructor, the Context object can be used to lookup the data source connection.

But when I develop Function plugins, can I also pass the Context object in Constructor? It's not mentioned in the document. Do anyone have experience to access the database inside Function plugins? The reason is we want to create a Function to access a BLOB column (The BLOB column is not supported by CDT)

Thanks.

ServiceContext should be first argument in the constructor. Yes, if required JDBC connection can be invoked from plug-in code. Try to minimize or avoid JDBC connections as you loose flexibility and increases maintenance in terms of configuration.
