Hi,
I am using the DB2 Universal Database Version 7.2 for Linux. I
want to build a simplified database, where I will store the information
for each table in a file, and the tuples of each table in a binary format
in that file. I will thus NOT use any tables from DB2 to store the
information. I will have the information stored in a format that I want.
My question is the following: can I add SQL-like commands to
DB2, so that my user-defined functions for creation of tables and queries
are used? I would like to have some of the functionality provided by DB2
to be maintained: for example, I want to provide a search function
(possibly by using an iterator), but I do not want to replicate the
functionality of all the commands (like the ORDER-BY clause) that exist in
DB2. This is something that in Informix could be done by using
data-blades. Is there something equivalent in DB2? For example, is there
an extender (or anything else) that might help me with my problem?
I would appreciate any help on this (links to pages, name of commands to
look for...).
Thank you in advance,
Antonios Deligiannakis
