Dynamic & Static DB2 SQL Services
The Dynamic and Static DB2 SQL components are two very high performance REXX - DB2 SQL interface components that may be licensed and used together or separately.
REXX applications can be easily ported between the REXXTOOLS Dynamic SQL and the Static SQL components. You can even combine Static and Dynamic SQL in the same REXX program.
Both Dynamic and Static SQL components operate in the following environments: TSO Ready, ISPF, APPC/MVS, IBM TCP/IP REXX Sockets, NetView, REXX Batch (IRXJCL), IBM Tivoli® AF/OPERATOR®, and IBM WEB ICSS.
New for REXXTOOLS/MVS Version 7.4: For Dynamic SQL Services, REXX Stored Procedures are now supported. A REXX stored procedure is a REXX program that runs in an address space separate from its caller, and possibly on a different machine. It performs some task or set of related tasks for the calling program and, optionally, returns results.
