Ant target: CreatePublishDataSource

CreatePublishDataSource creates a data source that points to the production database. The quickpublish feature uses this data source to move data from the authoring server's database to the production server's database. CreatePublishDataSource adds the new data source under the current WebSphere Commerce JDBC Provider in the authoring server.

Important: This Ant target is to be used only as a part of WebSphere Commerce instance creation.
