SQLJ Translator analyzes an SQLJ source program and generates a Java source file and a profile.

SQL statements are replaced with Java instructions, including the invocation of the JDBC API, and are output as a Java source file.

SQL character strings, number of parameters, types and modes of individual parameters, and the description of the columns to be output to a profile. The profile is referenced from the SQLJ Runtime Library. The entity of a profile is an instance of the java.sql.runtime.Profile class.

Table 18-1 lists the files that are generated and referenced by the SQLJ Translator.
