到底应该在哪里更改JDBC URL值？

Question

I'm trying to run some application and get the following error:

java.sql.SQLException: [Microsoft][SQLServer 2000 Driver for JDBC]Can't start a cloned connection while in manual transaction mode.

I know that I should add the parameter ;SelectMethod=Cursor to your JDBC URL

But I'm having problem understanding where exactly should I change it? Should it be some conf file in JDBC driver folder somewhere? Or can I do it from sql management studio? Also is there some easy way to determine if and what version of JDBC driver I have?

Help is very much appreciated!

Answer 1

You specify the URL when creating your JDBC connection, eg:

Connection con = DriverManager.getConnection(
   "jdbc:sqlserver://[serverName[\instanceName][:portNumber]][;property=value[;property=value]]",
   username,
   password);

Of course you have to replace the stuff in the brackets with your values.

Quite the same is true for every other tool (eg IntelliJ, Eclipse) I know of that connects to a DB via JDBC. See eg attached screenshot. Here you also specify the connection parameters via the JDBC URL.
