DataSource :: property - Property handle for collection

A data source property for the access path is opened only, when an accessPath had been defined for the data source. Usually, a data source property handle is not required. Generic functions, however as CopyDB may refer to data source properties in order to limit the data to be copied.

Return value:  Property reference ( odaba::Property & )

A property handle refers to a (usually) opened property. Invalid properties may cause an exception.

Implementation details

odaba::Property & DataSource  :: property (  )

The function returns the property handle for the data source. The property handle might be invalid, when the data source has not been opened or no property path had been defined.
