Sybase ASE Howto Torque Documentation Team

This HOWTO was written some time ago and was targeted at the version of Torque that was coupled with the Turbine application framework. Contributions towards updating the information below can be submitted to the Torque Dev mailing list.

This text is a description of integration of Sybase ASE as the target database in a TDK generated application.

Sybase has a pure java jdbc driver, jConnect, that is free to use, but not open source. You may download this driver from Sybase.

  1. Generate your application with the TDK as normal.
  2. Edit the project properties as instructed by the TDK.
  3. Before you run 'build.sh init' you will need to create the database. Automatic database creation for Sybase does not currently work, so the database must be created first.
  4. Place the jConnect jar file in your WEB-INF/lib directory.
  5. Run 'build.sh init' to generate and initialize the project.
