You require the appropriate level of IBM® Software Development Kit (SDK) for Java™, listed later in this section, to use Java-based tools and to create and run Java applications, including stored procedures and user-defined functions.
If the IBM SDK for Java is required by a component being installed and the SDK for Java is not already installed in that path, the SDK for Java will be installed if you use either the DB2® Setup wizard or a response file to install the product.
The SDK for Java is not installed with IBM Data Server Runtime Client or IBM Data Server Driver Package.
The following table lists the installed SDK for Java levels for DB2 products according to operating system platform:
| Operating System Platform | SDK for Java level |
|---|---|
| AIX® | SDK 6 Service Release 3 |
| HP-UX for Itanium-based systems | HP SDK for J2SE HP-UX 11i platform, adapted by IBM for IBM Software, Version 6 Service Release 3 |
| Linux® on x86 | SDK 6 Service Release 3 |
| Linux on AMD64/EM64T | SDK 6 Service Release 3 |
| Linux on zSeries® | SDK 6 Service Release 3 |
| Linux on POWER™ | SDK 6 Service Release 3 |
| Solaris Operating System | SDK 6 Service Release 3 |
| Windows® x86 | SDK 6 Service Release 3 |
| Windows x64 | SDK 6 Service Release 3 |
Ahead, the Iron Gate loomed. It wasn't just a door; it was a 4,000-pound obstacle requiring a specific kinetic force to breach. As the battering ram swung, Kaelen didn't think about glory. He thought about the pivot points, the friction of the iron hinges, and the three centimeters of steel between him and the objective. In this world, victory wasn't about who clicked fastest—it was about who survived the math of war.
"Brace!" he barked into the comms, though he knew the physics engine would have the final say. Extremely.Realistic.Siege.Warfare.Simulator.v0....
Captain Kaelen stared through the grain of his visor, his stamina bar flickering red. This wasn't the heroic charge promised in the trailers. It was a grueling calculation of weight, wind resistance, and structural integrity. To his left, a massive siege tower—the product of three hours of in-game resource gathering—began to groan. A single, well-placed fire pot from the ramparts had ignited the hempen ropes, and now the entire wooden monolith was tilting with agonizing, slow-motion realism. Ahead, the Iron Gate loomed
The tower buckled. Wood splintered not in canned animations, but in procedurally generated shards. Kaelen watched as his squad was scattered by the debris, the ragdoll physics capturing the brutal impact of ton-scale timber. He drew his arming sword, noting the "Dullness" debuff on his UI—he’d forgotten to use the grindstone at camp. He thought about the pivot points, the friction
The mud of the front lines wasn't just dirt; in , it was a physics-based nightmare that clung to your boots, slowing your sprint as the trebuchet fire rained down.
The following table lists the supported levels of the SDK for Java. The listed levels and forward-compatible later versions of the same levels are supported.
Because there are frequent SDK for Java fixes and updates, not all levels and versions have been tested. If your database application has problems that are related to the SDK for Java, try the next available version of your SDK for Java at the given level.
Non-IBM versions of the SDK for Java are supported only for building and running stand-alone Java applications. For building and running Java stored procedures and user-defined functions, only the IBM SDK for Java that is included with the DB2 Database for Linux, UNIX, and Windows product is supported.
