DDL Generation

CA Gen-generated Java applications do not require a Java-specific DDL Generation. All generated Java applications use JDBC to access their database and have no special requirements on how the DDL was generated or installed.

In general, customers who are retargeting their application to Java should continue to use the Technical Design of their existing application. For example, if the existing application is generated in C and uses Oracle, then the CA Gen-generated Java application should be generated with Oracle as the DBMS. This implies that existing CA Gen-generated databases may be reused by CA Gen-generated Java applications.

The following section describes how to use the JDBC Technical Design and how to generate the DDL defined and specialized within it. If you are reusing an existing technical design, continue to use the DDL generation and installation methods currently in use.
