Component list

Select the tFirebirdConnection
component in the list if more than one connection are planned for
the current Job.

Close Connection

This check box is selected by default. It allows you to close the
database connection once the commit is done. Clear this check box to
continue to use the selected connection once the component has
performed its task.

tStat
Catcher
Statistics

Select this check box to collect log data at the component
level.

Usage rule

This component is more commonly used with other tFirebird*
components, especially with the tFirebirdConnection and tFirebirdRollback components.

Dynamic settings

Click the [+] button to add a
row in the table and fill the Code field
with a context variable to choose your database connection dynamically from
multiple connections planned in your Job. This feature is useful when you
need to access database tables having the same data structure but in
different databases, especially when you are working in an environment where
you cannot change your Job settings, for example, when your Job has to be
deployed and executed independent of
Talend Studio
.

Once a dynamic parameter is defined, the Component List box in the Basic
settings view becomes unusable.

For examples on using dynamic parameters, see Scenario: Reading data from databases through context-based dynamic connections and Scenario: Reading data from different MySQL databases using dynamically loaded connection parameters. For more information on Dynamic
settings and context variables, see
Talend Studio User Guide.
