Planned Development

Dynamic Paramters For DB Data Source

To be added to : 3.15.0 development
Estimated start date: already in development
Estimated end date: 27th April 2007

New functionality is being developed in the DB Data Source to allow for dynamic queries of the form: SELECT * FROM table WHERE column = %%VARIABLE%%

In this query, %%VARIABLE%% is a keyword whose value is extracted from the environment (GET/POST/Current User/Current Site/Current Asset) using a parameter map. These variables can be used anywhere within a manually-configured query. This feature will greatly reduce the number of assets required because this asset will represent many similar queries instead of just one.

Upgrading

3.15.0 Development

Additional queries:

No additional queries are required for upgrades.

Additional comments: 

No additional steps are required.
