IMapping

The IMapping interface provides help functions that package data-specific properties. With these functions you can for example, add tables or fields and process data. A few of these functions perform the relevant operations immediately and then close the required database resources automatically. A few functions also provide database resources directly. In this case, you must be sure to close these resources yourself in a Finally-block.

Close database resources such as Connection or ResultSet, which you receive from the IMapping interface, when they are no longer required. All methods in the IMapping interface affect the database connection specified in the runtimeconfig.xml configuration file in the Datalayer section. The interface provides other useful functions for processing data and data structures. These are documented in the Java documentation.
