e-Commerce Applications Using Oracle8i and Java from Scratch

Introduction

Oracle8i provides two techniques that can be used to communicate with the database from within Java code: JDBC and SQLJ. Prior to this chapter, we have been focusing on the use of JDBC for implementing JavaStop. In this chapter, we will focus on the use of SQLJ as an alternative technique of implementing JavaStop. Using SQLJ instead of JDBC will result in code that is very compact and easy to understand.
