Workspace Db2 for z/OS
Created by Guest
Created on Feb 4, 2019

Support for complete db2 syntax, including set terminator and update command

As part of the Db2 notation for scripts, there are the following ones that are not supported by Db2:

  • Set terminator, including multiple character terminators in the same script.
  • Modify the auto commit option

 

For example, the following is a valid Db2 script not supported by DataStudio.

--#SET TERMINATOR @
values current timestamp@
--#SET TERMINATOR ;
values current user;
update command options using c off;

    This works perfectly in Data Studio 4.1.3 :

     

    --#SET TERMINATOR @
    values current timestamp@
    --#SET TERMINATOR ;
    values current user;

     

    The auto-commit option doesn't seem to be supported in Data Studio (probably as it is CLP syntax):

    update command options using c off;

    It would be nice if something similar was implemented for DS though - especially since it has been requested frequently since at least 2008 :O

    e.g.

       --#SET AUTOCOMMIT OFF ;
