Description

The DBInterface service does not currently allow the configuration of the port number of the DB, meaning that it is difficult to configure SSH tunnel access on multi-user machines on local networks. Please allow a port configuration parameter to the service configuration to allow easier tunneling.

The following patch allows :port on the end of the host name:

-  std::string connection_info = "host = " + host + " user = " + user + " password = " + pwd + " dbname = " + db;

+  }
   try {
     c_ = std::unique_ptr<connection>(new connection (connection_info));
   } catch (const std::runtime_error& e) {

With this, the connection now works, but there seems to be a problem accessing the means table. I will have to take this up with Alden.

Thanks,
Chris.
