Turn DB Servers On and Off

As I add new clients for whom I’m developing solutions in Servoy, my list of DB Servers is growing. Some of them are on internal networks I connect to first with a VPN - so loading the dataproviders window has become quite slow, it just sits there and says “Loading…”

After a while it realizes it’s not going to connect to these DB servers and stops trying. But what I’ve had to do is actually remove each of these servers and recreate them only when I want to work on that server! Very tedious. Could you create a feature to allow us to set certain servers to not automatically connect?

Thank you!

We’re looking at introducing that in a future version. Meanwhile you can consider having multiple servoy.properties files. Rename them before you start servoy:

servoy.properties.local
servoy.properties.custA
servoy.properties.custB
etc

Ah - OK, thanks for the quick fix!
