Database connectivity in workshop 8.1!

[Aashu Arya]

I am working on a atm web application and want to connect to database for verification of user credentials? How can I insert an action in the page flow for that?

Hello Aashu I haven't Workshop installed on my laptop so I can't drive you with all details but as I remember is very simple...you can create a database control and add it to a controller so your flow will have a "private DatabaseControl mycontrol" member that you can use in your action method...

How can i add database control .jcx file to the controller and how can i use it to authenticate values from database?

[Andrea Gazzarini]

As I remember you have three perspectives of the Controller...

1) The graphical view where you can see in a graphical way page,actions and connections;
2) The code view where you can see the controller source code;
3) Another view that I don't remmeber the name (action view?) : here you can add your control simply using drag & drop.
