For example: to execute the method setURL, give the method a String for the URL “setURL#<url>##”.

Note - The setSpyAttributes, contained in the following examples (between the last set of double octothorps [##] within each example), are used for debugging purposes and need not be used on every occasion.

“setURL#jdbc:SeeBeyond:informix://<host>1526;DatabaseName=<database>##setInformixServer#<informixserver>##setSpyAttributes#log=(file)c:/temp/spy.log;logTName=yes##”.
