Updated: February 25, 2016
Applies To: SQL Server 2016
Represents additional connection properties that can be implemented by SQL Server Reporting Services data processing extensions.
Assemblies: Microsoft.ReportingServices.Interfaces (in Microsoft.ReportingServices.Interfaces.dll)

| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() | ConnectionString | Gets or sets the string used to open a database.(Inherited from IDbConnection.) |
![]() | ConnectionTimeout | Gets the time to wait, while trying to establish a connection, before terminating the attempt and generating an error.(Inherited from IDbConnection.) |
![]() | Impersonate | Sets the username of the user that is impersonated while queries are executed. This property is ignored by the report server if impersonation is not supported by the data provider. |
![]() | IntegratedSecurity | Indicates whether the connection should use integrated security rather than supply a username and password. |
![]() | LocalizedName | Gets the localized name of the extension to be displayed in a user interface.(Inherited from IExtension.) |
![]() | Password | Gets or sets the password to use when connecting to the database. Overrides any password specified in the connection string. |
![]() | UserName | Gets or sets the username to use when connecting to the database. Overrides any username specified in the connection string. |
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() | BeginTransaction() | Begins a database transaction.(Inherited from IDbConnection.) |
![]() | Close() | Closes the connection to the database.(Inherited from IDbConnection.) |
![]() | CreateCommand() | Creates and returns a Command object associated with the connection.(Inherited from IDbConnection.) |
![]() | Dispose() | (Inherited from IDisposable.) |
![]() | Open() | Initializes a database connection with the settings specified by the ConnectionString property of the provider-specific Connection object.(Inherited from IDbConnection.) |
![]() | SetConfiguration(String^) | Used to pass custom configuration data to an extension.(Inherited from IExtension.) |
The IDbConnectionExtension interface enables you to implement an extension of the IDbConnection interface, which adds additional functionality for authenticating a connection to a data source. The IDbConnectionExtension interface can be used to build a custom data processing extension. For more information about Connection classes, see Implementing a Connection Class for a Data Processing Extension.
An application does not create an instance of the IDbConnectionExtension interface directly, but creates an instance of a class that implements IDbConnectionExtension.
Classes that implement IDbConnectionExtension must also implement all required members, and typically define additional members to add provider-specific functionality. Because IDbConnectionExtension inherits from IDbConnection, you must also implement all of the IDbConnection members as part of your Connection class including those members from IExtension.
