I have the same question as guru man. When to use esql and when to use the sql transformer? Please correct my below described assumptions. I started with esql, but moved to the Sql-Transformer, because esql works on the generator level and I want to have a "ReportDefintionxxx.xml" as the first file in my pipeline/matcher. So Sql-Transformer seems more naturally to me. Actually I want to use a home grown Transformer that extracts some of the Data from ReportDefinition.xml and build a sql-statement which will then be transformed (executed) by the SQL-Transformer. This is because we want the ba people to give the opportunity to manage the reports in one file. I haven't seen any way to do that with esql, but it's also possibly that I missed the whole point. Wouldn't be the first time ;-) Furthermore I like that SQL Transformer uses prepared statements. The only thing I don't like too much about SQL Transformer is that I can tweak really the element names of the generated output.
