Configuring JDBC providers to use pureQuery to access DB2

Use this task to configure the application data source Java Database Connectivity (JDBC) provider to use pureQuery to access DB2® in a Java EE environment.

Before you begin

If you must use multiple DB2 package collections, see the information center topic configure pureQuery to use multiple package collections before continuing with this task.

About this task

PureQuery uses DB2 packages. These packages consist of information for one or more SQL statements and are stored in the DB2 catalog. You must first run the wsdbgen command on a JPA application to create the packages. The wsdbgen command creates an XML file containing SQL statement information. This XML file must be included into the application Java archive (JAR) file. The DB2 bind command uses this file as input to create the DB2 package .
Important:
  • JPA sets the pureQuery property pdq.executionMode to the value STATIC.
  • The JDBC provider configuration must include the JAR file for the pureQuery runtime environment. This JAR file is in addition to the JDBC driver JAR file. See the information center topic on installing pureQuery run time for more information.
  • If this is an XA data source, define a new custom property on the data source where property_name = downgradeHoldCursorsUnderXa and boolean value = true.

Procedure

  1. Update the application data source JDBC provider configuration to include the pureQuery runtime JAR file. Either define a new JDBC provider or modify an existing provider to include the following JAR files. See information center topics on JDBC provider settings and installing IBM® Optim™ pureQuery Run time for more information.
    • pdq.jar
    • pdqmgmt.jar
  2. Using the DB2 bind command, bind the XML file to the database. This creates the DB2 packages. There are three ways to do this:
    • Use the wsadmin command. Refer to the information center topic on application management command group for the AdminTask object for more information.
    • Using the administrative console. Refer to the information center topic on SQLj profiles and pureQuery bind files settings for more information.
    • Using the DB2 bind command provided by IBM Optim pureQuery Run time. Refer to the information center topic on the pureQuery Bind utility for more information.

What to do next

If you want to reconfigure the data source for JDBC, remove the pdq.jar and pdqmgmt.jar from the class path.
