RE: SQL Finding & Using

More to the point, the SQL runtime is a standard part of OS400. Programs developed with the SQL development tools can be restored to any box and run as expected.

The SQL development tools are a chargable feature.

Even without the SQL development tools, you can potentially use the SQL-CLI api's, or the Process Extended Dynamic SQL api.... This can be a difficult way to get started, but a few well-designed service programs can quickly take the pain out of this...

Can you discuss your shop's intent? If this is a modernization initiative (developer roadmap), then I'd recommend purchasing the development tools to help maximize your developer's productivity.

Eric

the SQL software is a separate package and you'll have to purchase it.

Thanks,

SQL Finding & Using






All,
I have been given the task of implementing the use of SQL. Forgive me
if I do not fully state my question correctly, I'm am a rookie when it
comes to systems administration. We have a 270 running v5r4. I was told
that SQL comes with the system? Can some one point me to any
documentation/manuals... that can help me find/use this. I used DSPSFWRSC
and GO LICPGM opt 10, but could not find anything relating to SQL

Thank you
