Each section header in the customization file consists of square brackets ([]) containing a type and parameter. The four section types are indicated by the literal strings connect, sql, userlist, or logs. The parameter is the literal string, the default, a user-specified identifier, or nothing.
Therefore, each section is marked with one of the following section headers:
[ connect default ] [ connect identifier ] [ sql default ] [ sql identifier ] [ userlist identifier ] [ logs ]
The section headers have the following parts.
Part | Description |
---|---|
connect | A literal string that modifies a connection string. |
sql | A literal string that modifies a command string. |
userlist | A literal string that modifies the access rights of a specific user. |
logs | A literal string that specifies a log file recording operational errors. |
default | A literal string that is used if no identifier is specified or found. |
identifier | A string that matches a string in the connect or command string.

The DataFactory calls the handler, passing client parameters. The handler searches for whole strings in the client parameters that match identifiers in the appropriate section headers. If a match is found, the contents of that section are applied to the client parameter.
A particular section is used under the following circumstances:
