I'm writing a database tool with dynamically loading of different jdbc
drivers (like hsqldb, mysql and for my favorite database firebird).
For firebird I will implement some special features. You remember my
question to the procedure source.
This tool can connect to many databases at the same time and so I
thought, that I can use the connection values for each connection to
use it at any other modules with server authentification (like grant
manager, backup and restore manager and so on).
Okay, I see that the solution is to save the connection values from
each database connection and read it if I need.

I think, that I will test any other features from the new release in
the future and hope, that my questions are not to peeving ;-)

Thank you all very much for your help
