1 Scope ISO/IEC 9075‑2 specifies embedded SQL for the programming languages: Ada, C, COBOL, Fortran, MUMPS, Pascal, and PL/I. This document defines similar features of Database language SQL that support embedding of SQL-statements into programs written in the Java1 programming language. The embedding of SQL into Java is commonly known as “SQLJ”. This document specifies the syntax and semantics of SQLJ, as well as mechanisms to ensure binary portability of resulting SQLJ applications. In addition, it specifies a number of Java packages and their contained classes (including methods). Throughout this document, the terms “SQLJ” and “SQL/OLB” are used synonymously.
