Unleashing the Power of the Query - Querying Relational and XML Data Using SQL/XML and XQuery
Overview Users of DB2 UDB Version 8.x XML functionality might be familiar with some SQL/XML publishing functions, but XQuery is a new language that has been added to DB2. One needs to understand it a little better and see how it works with SQL/XML to query and publish XML data in DB2. XQuery is the language that is used to query XML documents. XQuery calls can be passed to DB2 using either in the SQL/XML function XMLQuery or by prepending them with the XQUERY keyword. XQuery has all the rudimentary functionality of most high level languages (if-then-else, for, variables, functions, arithmetic operators etc.). This makes it possible to embed business logic inside the query.
