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.
