Steven Hawkins commented on TEIID-2800:
---------------------------------------

>So after this change, we should set the user/password parameters directly on teiidDataSource

Before this change if you set a property on TeiidDataSource that needs url encoding, it will need to be encoded form.  After this change properties such as user/password on the TeiidDataSource will not need to be encoded.

> If the user password is passed to getConnection() it will not be encoded. Am I correct?

Before this change user/password on getConnection(user, password) are ignored.  After this change, they will be used and do not need to be encoded.

> When we try to login to teiid programmatically through datasource, we are having problem with username having special characters.
> We are encoding the special character as per url encoding
> eg : username %xyz is encoded as %25xyz but teiid does not decode the special character while passing username. So the username passed by teiid is %25xyz which fails authentication as the actual username is %xyz
