Anders Morken commented on DERBY-963:
-------------------------------------

I've actually had a patch for this in my trunk checkout for a while, but it's 
been forgotten and rotting away as I haven't yet, uhm, "found the inspiration" 
to write regression tests and doc patches for it. I'll see about it soon. =)

> Allow user friendly string values for security mechanism in client connection

> Overview:
> DRDA spec specifies the following secmec (securitymechanism) values.
> USRIDONL = 4
> USRIDPWD = 3
> EUSRIDPWD = 9
> Currently in the client url, one would have to pass in the integer value for 
> securityMechanism. e.g.
> ij>connect 'testdb;securityMechanism=9;user=sa;password=p1';
> when using the datasource, the setSecurityMechanism(int) on the 
> ClientDataSource can be used.
> Constants are
> ClientDataSource.CLEAR_TEXT_PASSWORD_SECURITY (0x03)
> ClientDataSource.USER_ONLY_SECURITY (0x04)
> ClientDataSource.ENCRYPTED_USER_AND_PASSWORD_SECURITY (0x09)
> Add support in client to recognize the user friendly names for the 
> securityMechanism attribute. The values that should be accepted are 
> CLEAR_TEXT_PASSWORD_SECURITY, USER_ONLY_SECURITY, 
> ENCRYPTED_USER_AND_PASSWORD_SECURITY.
> --------
> To ensure that the old applications that were written to pass in an integer 
> value for securityMechanism do not break with the new client , the client 
> should probably support both the integer values as well as the string values.
