Properties |

### Properties

The list of properties passed to the JDBC driver when creating physical database connections.

To enable driver-level features, add the driver property and its value to the Properties list. WebLogic Server sets driver-level properties in the Properties list on the driver's `ConnectionPoolDataSource` object.

Note: For Security reasons, when WebLogic Server is running in Production mode, you cannot specify database passwords in this properties list. Data source deployment will fail if a password is specified in the properties list. To override this security check, use the command line argument "weblogic.management.allowClearTextPasswords" when starting the server.

Factory Methods | No explicit creator method. The child shares the lifecycle of its parent.
Privileges | Read only
Type | JDBCPropertiesBean
Relationship type: | Containment.

## Attributes

This section describes the following attributes:

DriverName Password PasswordEncrypted | Url UseXaDataSourceInterface

### DriverName

The full package name of JDBC driver class used to create the physical database connections in the connection pool in the data source.

For example: `com.pointbase.jdbc.jdbcUniversalDriver`

The driver must be the name of a class that implements the `java.sql.Driver` interface. Check the driver documentation to find the full pathname.

Note that the driver class must be in the classpath of any server to which the data source is deployed.

Privileges | Read/Write
Type | java.lang.String

### Password

The password attribute passed to the JDBC driver when creating physical database connections.

The value is stored in an encrypted form in the descriptor file and when displayed on the Administration Console.

Privileges | Read/Write
Security roles | Read access is granted only to the following roles: Deployer
Type | java.lang.String
Encrypted | true

### PasswordEncrypted

The encrypted database password as set with `setPassword()`, `setPasswordEncrypted(byte[] bytes)`, or as a key=value pair in the list of JDBC driver properties.

Privileges | Read/Write
Type | byte[]
Encrypted | true

### Url

The URL of the database to connect to. The format of the URL varies by JDBC driver.

The URL is passed to the JDBC driver to create the physical database connections.

Privileges | Read/Write
Type | java.lang.String

### UseXaDataSourceInterface

Specifies that WebLogic Server should use the XA interface of the JDBC driver.

If the JDBC driver class used to create database connections implements both XA and non-XA versions of a JDBC driver, you can set this attribute to indicate that WebLogic Server should treat the JDBC driver as an XA driver or as a non-XA driver.

Privileges | Read/Write
Type | boolean
Default Value | true

## Operations

This section describes the following operations:

isSet unSet |

### isSet

Return true if the given property has been explicitly set in this bean.

Operation Name | `"isSet"`
Parameters | `Object [] { propertyName }` where: `propertyName` is an object of type `java.lang.String` that specifies: property to check
Signature | `String [] { "java.lang.String" }`
Returns | `boolean`
Exceptions | `java.lang.IllegalArgumentException` IllegalArgumentException if propertyName is not a recognized property

### unSet

Restore the given property to its default value.

Operation Name | `"unSet"`
Parameters | `Object [] { propertyName }` where: `propertyName` is an object of type `java.lang.String` that specifies: property to restore
Signature | `String [] { "java.lang.String" }`
Returns | `void`
Exceptions | `java.lang.IllegalArgumentException` UnsupportedOperationException if called on a runtime implementation.
