Question about Java software pre-req #147

Open PRShindle opened 3 months ago

PRShindle commented 3 months ago

Hello - I'm a Db2 for z/OS DBA and I want to install IBM Developer Extension, but I have a question. I just need to be able to deploy Java stored procedures in Db2 for z/OS from a pre-prod environment to our prod environment. I do not actually develop the java stored procs- that is done by our development teams. So, in order to simply deploy Java stored procs, do I need to install the full Java SDK on my PC/laptop, or is it sufficient to install just the Java Runtime environment (JRE)? Please advise.

Thanks.

Hi @PRShindle , you need a Java SDK to deploy Java stored procedures. Because java tools are needed to compile Java class files and package class files into jar files.
