12.3. Translator Properties

Translators can have a number of configurable properties. These are divided among the following categories:

Execution Properties - these properties determine aspects of how data is retrieved. A list of properties common to all translators are provided in Section 12.5, “Base Execution Properties”.
Note
The execution properties for a translator typically have reasonable defaults. For specific translator types, base execution properties are already tuned to match the source. In most cases the user will not need to adjust their values.
Importer Properties - these properties determine what metadata is read for import. There are no common importer properties.

Note

The import capabilities of translators is currently only used by dynamic VDBs and not by Teiid Designer. See Section 6.6, “Dynamic VDBs”.
