How to Use SQLJ

Question

I have used JPublisher to create and SQLJ and now I am trying to figure out how to call the function that is included in it.
I am attempting to populate the standard WHO fields for a custom table. Maybe there is an easier way to do it.
Thanks in Advance

The following excerpt from the forthcoming SQLJ FAQ may also provide help.
How can I use SQLJ with Oracle's BC4J?
"I am using BC4J (Oracle's Business Components For Java) in my application, and would like to write SQLJ code for performing some work in the database. Is it possible to do that?"
The following trick lets you obtain a real JDBC connection and create a SQLJ connection context:
import java.sql.Connection;
import sqlj.runtime.ref.DefaultContext;
import sqlj.runtime.ConnectionContext;
Connection conn = getDBTransaction()
.createCallableStatement("select 1 from dual",1)
.getConnection();
DefaultContext ctx = new DefaultContext(conn);
#sql [ctx] ... { ... };
ctx.close(ConnectionContext.KEEP_CONNECTION); // clean up SQLJ context
