    sql_db                  = mydatabase
    sql_port                = 3306  

    sql_query                       = \
        SELECT id, id as mid  obtype_id, searchtext from tab_objectcollection;

    sql_attr_uint           = mid
    sql_attr_uint           = obtype_id
    sql_query_info      = SELECT * FROM tab_objectcollection WHERE id=$id
