So the driver should be set as an attribute to the SQL task if it is build dependent, as global Java property otherwise. > we are trying to move away from all the magic properties, so no, I think it should stay as an attribute. Also, in my experience, the driver is often application dependent, so that I have different drivers for each app and the db they talk to. The best practise would be to always use a property to set the driver, so it can be overridden -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
