[oXygen-user] Read from database?

[Sorin Ristache]

Hello,

What is the name and version of the database? How did you connect to the 
database in Oxygen when you could see the data from the database correctly:

1. through a database connection based on a JDBC database driver and 
defined in Preferences -> Data Sources, 
(http://www.oxygenxml.com/doc/ug-oxygen/topics/preferences-data-sources.html)

or

2. using a custom protocol plugin developed in Java as described in the 
User Manual? 
(http://www.oxygenxml.com/doc/ug-oxygen/tasks/howto-custom-protocol-plugin.html)

If you already have a working connection defined in Preferences a simple 
way of adding the data to the DITA document is to browse the database 
contents in the Data Source Explorer view, open the XML file or the SQL 
table containing the data in Oxygen and copy and paste the data from 
there to the DITA document.

If you connect to the database with a custom protocol plugin please give 
us more details about the error that you get in the Java code of your 
plugin (which acts as a database client) when you try to establish the 
connection with the database server.


Regards,
Sorin
