|
|
A PL/I program that contains SQL statements must include one or both of the following:</li>
|
|
<li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="rzajpsqldapli.htm">Define SQL descriptor areas in PL/I applications that use SQL</a></strong><br />
|
|
<span><img src="./delta.gif" alt="Start of change" />There are two types of SQL descriptor areas.
|
|
One is defined with the ALLOCATE DESCRIPTOR statement. The other is defined
|
|
using the SQLDA structure. In this section, only the SQLDA form is discussed.<img src="./deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" /></span></li>
|
|
<li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="rzajpembedsqlpli.htm">Embed SQL statements in PL/I applications that use SQL</a></strong><br />
|
|
The first statement of the PL/I program must be a PROCEDURE statement.</li>
|
|
<li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="rzajphostvariablespli.htm">Use host variables in PL/I applications that use SQL</a></strong><br />
|
|
All host variables used in SQL statements must be explicitly declared.</li>
|
|
<li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="rzajphoststrucpli.htm">Use host structures in PL/I applications that use SQL</a></strong><br />
|
|
In PL/I programs, you can define a <strong>host structure</strong>, which
|
|
is a named set of elementary PL/I variables. A host structure name can be
|
|
a group name whose subordinate levels name elementary PL/I variables.</li>
|
|
<li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="rzajphostarraypli.htm">Use host structure arrays in PL/I applications that use SQL</a></strong><br />
|
|
In PL/I programs, you can define a host structure array.</li>
|
|
<li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="rzajppcticld.htm">Use external file descriptions in PL/I applications that use SQL</a></strong><br />
|
|
You can use the PL/I %INCLUDE directive to include the definitions of externally described files in a source program.</li>
|
|
<li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="rzajpequivsqlpli.htm">Determine equivalent SQL and PL/I data types</a></strong><br />
|
|
The precompiler determines the base SQLTYPE and SQLLEN of host variables based on the following table.</li>
|
|
<li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="rzajpindvp.htm">Use indicator variables in PL/I applications that use SQL</a></strong><br />
|
|
An indicator variable is a two-byte integer (BIN FIXED(p), where p is 1 to 15).</li>

|
<li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="rzajppliparm.htm">Differences in PL/I because of structure parameter passing techniques</a></strong><br />
|
|
The PL/I precompiler attempts to use the structure parameter passing technique, if possible. This structure parameter passing technique provides better performance for most PL/I programs using SQL.</li>
