XML White Papers

SQL/XML in JDBC Applications

Tags:
xml

Overview This paper explores different approaches for creating XML structures from SQL queries by comparing SQL/XML to custom-coded solutions using JDBC and SAX or DOM and to proprietary XML extensions from the database vendors. Many Java applications exchange data as XML, but store and query data using a JDBC connection to a traditional relational database. Unfortunately, XML and SQL represent information in very different ways, and many developers spend significant effort converting between the two formats. When producing XML for exchange, developers need a way to build hierarchical XML structures using queries on a set of unordered, two-dimensional tables. Similarly, they need a way to update the content of their two dimensional tables using data found in XML hierarchies.
