Content

You are in: IBM i Technology Updates > Db2 for i - Technology UpdatesDb2 for i Database Engineer (DBE) Enhancements > New Generate SQL option for Modernization

By default an SQL View is generated for DDS-created keyed physical, keyed logical, or join logical files

With this enhancement, IBM i Navigator will have additional Generate SQL options.
The mutually exclusive options have been added to QSQGNDDL and IBM i Navigator.

This enhancement makes it easier to proceed with DDS to SQL DDL modernization.
