Database Functions(3.1)

The following sets of functions are used for managing data in databases accessed via Database profiles:

  • Database Table functions - Looks up and insert data into tables
  • Callable Statement functions - Executes stored procedures
  • Prepared Statement functions - Efficiently executes statements multiple times and has support for failovers
  • Database Bulk functions - Bundles multiple queries into one SQL statement

Note!

All database related APL functions utilize a db connection pool, and they pick a connection from the pool for each invocation. Connection properties, such as the transaction state, are handled internally by each function and are never visible in APL.
