How to connect to Sybase SQL Anywhere
Connection properties
Specify the connection parameters for a database you want ASA PHP Generator to work with.
Script connection properties
These parameters will be used by the generated web application. By default they are the same as parameters used by ASA PHP Generator but you can change them if necessary. For example, if you are working with a remote database located at your web hosting and your database server and web server are installed on the same computer, you have to specify the value of the Host parameter as localhost.
To connect to an SQL Anywhere database with ASA PHP Generator, specify the following connection options:
Host
The host name of the SQL Anywhere server.
Engine name
The name of a running database server to which you want to connect. Click the ellipsis button to scan your network for available SQL Anywhere servers.
Port number
The TCP/IP port to use (default value is 2638).
ASA PHP Generator allows you to use integrated login (only for database servers running on Windows). Otherwise, set the following server security options.
User name
The username used to connect to SQL Anywhere.
Password
The password for the user account on server.
Start database before connection
Starts a local database server (if available).
Stop database after last disconnect
Stops local database server when there are no more open non-HTTP connections.
