    SQL-Ease for Db2 for z/OS
    SQL-Ease for Db2 for z/OS helps developers speed up application review, debugging, and SQL performance tuning without leaving the ISPF edit session. It reduces program development time by allowing programmers to test and fine-tune SQL statements before the program is compiled. Embedded SQL can be tested, debugged, and tuned directly from the ISPF editor, with functions for generating, standardizing, checking, executing, explaining, and analyzing SQL. SQL-Ease generates syntactically correct SELECT, UPDATE, DELETE, INSERT, MERGE, JOIN, UNION, and subselect statements for COBOL, Assembler, SPUFI, PL/I, and C programs, then places the SQL at the specified location. It can standardize hand-coded SQL into a consistent, easy-to-read format, check SQL syntax, execute SQL from an application program or SQL Editor, and return results with important execution statistics.
