SQLJ for Not Yet Techies

"Computer Careers: Working With This Technology for Java to Access and Query Databases for Information"

by Richard Stooker, President Info Ring Press and author of Secrets of Changing to a Computer Career

SQLJ stands for SQL for Java and is a set of extensions allowing developers to use Java to embed SQL database requests. When it began, Java could not benefit from the strengths of SQL, although languages such as C and C++ could, and this was a weakness of Java for large businesses that needed software applications that could efficiently access relational databases. SQLJ was a solution devised by a consortium of companies that, as far as I could see, excluded Sun Microsystems, the owner of Java.

SQLJ does support only static SQL, and therefore complements JDBC / Java Database Connectivity, the official Java technology for databases, which can handle dynamic SQL

In December 1998, this specification was accepted as ANSI Standard X3.135.10-1998.

The specifications are in these parts:

Embedded SQL
Routines
Types

SQLJ does not appear to be much promoted at this point.
