Programming with JDBC and SQLJ in the CICS DB2 environment

Start of changeThe JDBC 1.2 driver supports the JDBC 1.2 level application programming interface. The JDBC 2.0 driver supports the JDBC 1.2 API and a subset of the JDBC 2.0 API.The DB2 Universal JDBC Driver provides enhanced support for the JDBC 2.0 API and most of the JDBC 3.0 API, and also supports the JDBC 1.2 API. All three drivers support the SQLJ Part 0 (ANSI 98) level API. Java™ programs for CICS® must adhere to the programming rules of these application programming interfaces, which are more restrictive than the general CICS programming model.End of change

You can find more information about the JDBC APIs at the JDBC Web site, http://java.sun.com/products/jdbc. For information about the features of the JDBC APIs that are supported by the DB2®-supplied JDBC drivers, and how to code and build Java applications that use the JDBC and SQLJ APIs, see the DB2 Universal Database™ for OS/390® and z/OS® Application Programming Guide and Reference for Java which is appropriate for your version of DB2. The document number for DB2 Version 6 is SC26-9018, the document number for DB2 Version 7 is SC26-9932, and the document number for DB2 Version 8 is SC18-7414.
