Description
This function gets the ODBC DSNs from the site server. The
getRDSUserName() and getRDSPassword() functions
are used when the server model of the current site is ColdFusion. This function provides an option for a developer to
specify a URL parameter string to be appended to the Remote Connectivity URL that
MMDB.getRemoteDsnList()
generates. If the developer provides a parameter string, this function passes it to the HTTP connectivity scripts.
Arguments
{urlParams}
• The urlParams argument, which is optional, is a string that contains a list of name =value expressions, which are
separated by ampersand (&) characters. You must not enclose values with quotes. Some characters, such as the
space in the value
Hello World , need to be encoded. The following example shows a valid sample argument that
you can pass to MMDB.getRemoteDsnList() : a=1&b=Hello%20World
Returns
Returns an array that contains the ODBC DSNs that are defined on the server for the current site.
