Creating a vendor form for an ARDBC plug-in
After you build and install an ARDBC plug-in and configure your server to recognize it, you can create a vendor form. Creating a vendor form for an ARDBC LDAP plug-in is a special case.
When creating a vendor form, remember these tips:
- The plug-in can load more than one ARDBC plug-in at a time.
- Full Text Search ( FTS ) operations are not available on vendor form fields.
- You can add only those required and optional fields that correspond to actual columns in the data source. In addition, you can add a display only field only when the column name does not correspond to a column in the data source.
To create a vendor form for an ARDBC plug-in
- In Developer Studio , select File > New > Vendor Form.
- In the New Vendor Form Wizard, select the server on which you want to create the vendor form, and click Next.
- Select the ARDBC plug-in to use in the list of Available Vendor Names, and click Next.
- Select a table from the list of Available Vendor Tables, and click Next.
Alternatively, type a table name in the table field, click Validate, and click Next. - (Optional) On the Field Selection page, select a key column in the Key Field list box.
- In the Available Columns list on the Field Selection page, select columns to access in
AR System
, and move them to the Selected Columns list.
- Click Finish to create the vendor form.
- Use Developer Studio to edit the new form, and select File > Save.
