Re: [teiid-dev] Fwd: [teiid-designer-dev] Connection Factories
DTP has the capability to export a ConnectionProfile (equivalent to our JDBCSource
metadata in designer) to a file. We could use that as a portable connection metadata.
With default DTP features the user could save it to any place on the filesystem (the
project if they chose) and add it to the vdb. We could add create an Action that allowed
a user to export the ConnectionProfile info for a given source model into a VDB if we
wanted.

The concern here is definitely when the 2 users are NOT sharing the
same container. How would user 2 know which connector to hook up a
new CF to? IOW, how would he have any clue the source type should be
Oracle, for instance? Do we have to include *-ds.xml files to
accomplish this? Thus far, we haven't been planning on doing this...
