Question: I was just over [looking at this question](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/3968410/swig-ruby-overloading-problems). The first thought that popped to my head was that ruby must have some sort of "as" type keyword like Python's import to help avoid namespace pollution. I've googled a bit but it seems that it's recommended to [wrap your code in modules](http://ruby.about.com/od/rubyfeatures/a/require.htm) to avoid namespace problems with ruby. This seems problematic because what if two modules have conflicting names. 

So, any "as" type keywords for ruby's require?

Answer: 
Try:

<http://connectionstrings.com>

Typically something like:

```
<add name="MyDb" 
    connectionString="Server=.\SQLEXPRESS; Database=mydb; Integrated Security=True;"
    providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />

```
You probably don't need that attribute for your connection string. Just leave it out, unless you've gotten specific guidance that you need it.

Just use the `name` and `connectionString` and `providerName` parameters. Providername is probably:

```
providerName="System.Data.SqlClient"

```
