What are the fundamental steps in translating a SQLJ application? What is input and output during the translation process?
There are three basic steps: translation, compilation, and customization (optional). When you run the SQLJ front-end utility, by default all three steps are executed automatically. In the translation step, the SQLJ translator processes, checks, and translates your .sqlj source file. It checks it for rudimentary semantics errors and optionally connects to a target database to verify your SQL instructions against the actual resources in the specified database schema.
