DB2 Development Center
In DB2 Version 8.1, the Development Center replaces the Stored Procedure Builder and provides increased functionality for developing stored procedures and user-defined functions. You can also map structured types from Enterprise JavaBeans. A set of wizards and views helps you to perform your development tasks.
Features include:
- Project View: Manage multiple projects and multiple database connections.
- Output View: View results of multiple development tasks such as the testing of stored procedures or the sampling of table contents.
- Server View: Access the server objects, including stored procedures, user-defined functions, triggers, tables, and views. The Server View provides a subset of Control Center functions specifically designed for developers.
- Editor View: Work with source code and debug SQL routines; includes views for breakpoints, variables, and call stack debugger.
- Import wizard: Import routines from database servers, other projects, or other files into your project.
- Export wizard: Export routines from your project to the file system for later deployment to other servers.
- Deployment feature: Deploy your current project or exported project routines to other database servers.
