How to get a JDBC connection in to our plug-in extensions
We would be able to reuse the same JDBC driver for Jazz Team Server (see steps 5.b-c from http://www-01.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/?lang=en#!/SSCP65_2.0.0.2/com.ibm.jazz.install.doc/topics/t_s_server_installation_setup_oracle.html) to obtain a database connection in to our plug-in extensions. It would be even better if we could reuse the same database connection utils from com.ibm.team.repository.service. Is that possibile?
Thanks in advice.

I do not know of a way to get the database connection directly.
These two (older) articles on jazz.net might be helpful to you:
https://jazz.net/library/content/docs/hello-jazz/
https://jazz.net/wiki/bin/view/Main/JazzTalkWalkthrough
The first talks about defining a service and client library (needed if using the Eclipse client). The second talks about defining new types that are stored in the repository. Neither describes exactly what you are trying to do: access the database directly.

Thanks Martha, this "walkthrough" https://jazz.net/wiki/bin/view/Main/JazzTalkWalkthrough was helpful.
Cheers.
