This method should be overridden by a custom connector and return a new instance of a class implementing QvxConnection. The class implementing QvxConnection is typically created by a developer as part of a connector.

This method is called when QlikView sends a QVX_EDIT_CONNECT command. The method must be implemented by the user and may return connect string parameters.

This method should be overridden by a custom connector which has a custom select dialog and thereby supports QVX_EDIT_SELECT. It should return a select statement.

[QlikView 12 ONLY!] This method should be overridden by a custom connector. It should return a QvxReply.

Deserialize JSON string to object. Requires DataContract for the class being parsed.

Run QvxServer from within QlikView. It utilizes a command pipe to communicate with QlikView and a data pipe to send information to it.

Run QvxServer as a standalone application. With a standalone connector you create a .QVX file which can be read by QlikView. A standalone connector utilizes functionality similar to a command pipe to get the information it needs to create the .QVX file.

Serialize object into JSON string. Requires DataContract for the class being parsed.
