About properties

This is the first time I’m using clover.

The user case is like this:
I Import data from a tab delimetered file and want to store this data in a db table.
One of the rows should have a value which is the same for
each data file.
For example for file a.dat is 1 for b.dat is 2 etc.
This value is not taken from the input file.

I thought to use properties for this (perhaps cloverFields=“…;TheProperty”)
I don’t know if this is possible.
Is there any way to achieve this?

It can’t be used like that.

But you can use DBOutputTable where
you specify full update statement, then Property can be used - like this:

update mytable (a,b,c,d…) values(?,?,?,?,‘${TheProperty}’)

And use cloverFields to specify which clover field’s value is going to replace which placeholder - “?”
