openClient

public static ObjectContainer openClient(java.lang.String hostName,
                                         int port,
                                         java.lang.String user,
                                         java.lang.String password)

                                         InvalidPasswordException

Deprecated.

See the Db4oClientServer class in db4o client server library for methods to open db4o servers and db4o clients.

Operates just like openClient(Configuration, String, int, String, String), but uses the global db4o Configuration context. opens an ObjectContainer client and connects it to the specified named server and port.

The server needs to allow access for the specified user and password.

A client ObjectContainer can be cast to ExtClient to use extended ExtObjectContainer and ExtClient methods.

Parameters:

hostName - the host name

port - the port the server is using

user - the user name

password - the user password

Returns:

an open ObjectContainer

Throws:

Db4oIOException - I/O operation failed or was unexpectedly interrupted.

OldFormatException - open operation failed because the database file is in old format and Configuration.allowVersionUpdates(boolean) is set to false.

InvalidPasswordException - password supplied for the connection is invalid.

openClient

public static ObjectContainer openClient(Configuration config,
                                         java.lang.String hostName,

Parameters:

config - a custom Configuration instance to be obtained via Db4oEmbedded.newConfiguration()

hostName - the host name

port - the port the server is using

user - the user name

password - the user password

Returns:

an open ObjectContainer

openFile

public static final ObjectContainer openFile(java.lang.String databaseFileName)
                                      throws Db4oIOException,
                                             DatabaseFileLockedException,
                                             IncompatibleFileFormatException,

                                             DatabaseReadOnlyException

Deprecated.

Use Db4oEmbedded.openFile(EmbeddedConfiguration, String) instead

Operates just like Db4oEmbedded#openFile(Configuration, String), but uses the global db4o Configuration context. opens an ObjectContainer on the specified database file for local use.

A database file can only be opened once, subsequent attempts to open another ObjectContainer against the same file will result in a DatabaseFileLockedException.

Database files can only be accessed for readwrite access from one process (one VM) at one time. All versions except for db4o mobile edition use an internal mechanism to lock the database file for other processes.

Parameters:

databaseFileName - an absolute or relative path to the database file

Returns:

an open ObjectContainer

Throws:

Db4oIOException - I/O operation failed or was unexpectedly interrupted.

DatabaseFileLockedException - the required database file is locked by another process.

IncompatibleFileFormatException - runtime configuration is not compatible with the configuration of the database file.

OldFormatException - open operation failed because the database file is in old format and Configuration.allowVersionUpdates(boolean) is set to false.

DatabaseReadOnlyException - database was configured as read-only.
