Emphasis is on embedding Structured Query Language (SQL) statements and preparing programs for execution.

Objectives

• Incorporate static SQL statements in an application program
  Prepare the program for execution
  Validate execution results are correct
  Produce code to support multiple rows being returned from the database manager using cursors
  Identify considerations regarding units of work, concurrency, and restart of programs
  Identify differences between static and dynamic SQL
  Provide test data for applications
  Discuss program and DB2 options relative to performance of static SQL
