Specifying Application IDs

Application IDs are alphanumeric strings passed by a SequeLink Client that identify the client application to a SequeLink service that has been configured to accept connections only from specific application IDs.

For more information about configuring SequeLink services to accept connections only from specific application IDs, refer to the SequeLink Administrator's Guide.

Specifying Application IDs Explicitly

Using the ADO Client, the client application specifies the following key-value pair in the DBPROP_INIT_PROVIDERSTRING property of the DBPROPSET_DBINITALL property set:

ApplicationID=MyAppID;  

where myAppID is the application ID.

Generating Application IDs Automatically

Using the ADO Client, the client application specifies the following key-value pairs in the DBPROP_INIT_PROVIDERSTRING property of the DBPROPSET_DBINITALL property set:

Automatic Application ID=x 

where:

When Automatic Application ID is set to 1, the full path of the application executable is used as input for the hash function.
When Automatic Application ID is set to 2, the executable binary file is used as input for the hash function.
When Automatic Application ID is set to 3, both the full path of the application executable and the executable binary file are used as input for the hash function.
When Automatic Application ID is set to 4, the full directory name of the application executable is used as input for the hash function.
