Database connection functions

Database connection functions let you make and manage any connection, including the Dreamweaver-provided ADO,
ColdFusion, and JDBC connections.

These functions interface with the Connection Manager only; they do not access a database. For functions that access
a database, see “

Database access functions

” on page 67.

In managing database connections, you can get the user name and password to perform activities including:

Making a connection to a database

Opening a database connection dialog box

MMDB.deleteConnection()

Availability
Dreamweaver MX.

Description
This function deletes the named database connection.

Arguments
connName

The connName argument is the name of the database connection as it is specified in the Connection Manager. This
argument identifies, by name, the database connection to delete.

Returns
Nothing.

Example
The following example deletes a database connection:

function clickedDelete()

{

var selectedObj = dw.serverComponents.getSelectedNode();
if (selectedObj && selectedObj.objectType=="Connection")
{

var connRec = MMDB.getConnection(selectedObj.name);
if (connRec)
{

MMDB.deleteConnection(selectedObj.name);
dw.serverComponents.refresh();

}

}

}
