Interface ConnectionSource

All Superinterfaces:

LifeCycle

All Known Implementing Classes:

ConnectionSourceBase, DataSourceConnectionSource, DriverManagerConnectionSource, JNDIConnectionSource

public interface ConnectionSource
extends LifeCycle

The ConnectionSource interface provides a pluggable means of transparently obtaining JDBC Connections for logback classes that require the use of a Connection. For more information about this component, please refer to the online manual at http://logback.qos.ch/manual/appenders.html#DBAppender

Method Summary

Connection	getConnection() Obtain a Connection for use.
SQLDialectCode	getSQLDialectCode() Get the SQL dialect that should be used for this connection.
boolean	supportsBatchUpdates() If the connection does not support batch updates, we will avoid using them.
boolean	supportsGetGeneratedKeys() If the connection supports the JDBC 3.0 getGeneratedKeys method, then we do not need any specific dialect support.

Method Detail

getConnection

Connection getConnection()
                         throws SQLException

Obtain a Connection for use. The client is responsible for closing the Connection when it is no longer required.

Throws:

SQLException - if a Connection could not be obtained

getSQLDialectCode

SQLDialectCode getSQLDialectCode()

Get the SQL dialect that should be used for this connection. Note that the dialect is not needed if the JDBC driver supports the getGeneratedKeys method.

supportsGetGeneratedKeys

boolean supportsGetGeneratedKeys()

If the connection supports the JDBC 3.0 getGeneratedKeys method, then we do not need any specific dialect support.

supportsBatchUpdates

boolean supportsBatchUpdates()

If the connection does not support batch updates, we will avoid using them.
