Parameters
| Parameter | Required | Type | Description | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| ApplicationPool | Required | Microsoft.SharePoint.PowerShell.SPIisWebServiceApplicationPoolPipeBind | Specifies the IIS application pool to use for the new Business Data Connectivity service application. | ||
| DatabaseName | Required | System.String | Specifies the name for the Business Data Connectivity database. | ||

| Name | Required | System.String | Specifies a display name for the new Business Data Connectivity service application. | ||
| AssignmentCollection | Optional | Microsoft.SharePoint.PowerShell.SPAssignmentCollection | Manages objects for the purpose of proper disposal.

Using the SPAssignment object, you can assign objects to a variable and dispose of the objects after they are needed to free up memory. When SPWeb, SPSite, or SPSiteAdministration objects are used, the objects are automatically disposed of if an assignment collection or the Global parameter is not used.
