Configuring Services Using the OpenAccess SDK Management Console : Configuring Services in a Local Configuration : Creating a Service
 

Creating a Service

When you install OpenAccess SDK in a local configuration, at least one data access service and one or more service templates are installed. In most cases, the service templates provide a configuration that can be used with few modifications.
Some service attributes are not defined in the templates. You can use the OpenAccess SDK Manager to modify these attributes as well as the default service attributes defined in the service templates:
*Service for C/C++
*Service for Java
*Service for .NET
You can also use the OpenAccess SDK Manager to create and modify additional services for the local configuration.
For more information, see:
*Configuring the OpenAccess SDK SQL Engine describes the typical attributes required for configuring a service to use the OpenAccess SDK SQL Engine.
*Configuring an OpenAccess SDK IP for a Third-Party SQL Engine describes the typical attributes required to configure a service to use a third-party SQL engine.
*OpenAccess SDK Service Attributes describes all of the OpenAccess SDK service attributes.
