SQL Escape Sequences for JDBC
A number of language features, such as outer joins and scalar function calls, are commonly implemented by DBMSs. The syntax for these features is often DBMS-specific, even when a standard syntax has been defined. JDBC defines escape sequences that contain standard syntaxes for the following language features:
- Date, time, and timestamp literals
- Scalar functions such as numeric, string, and data type conversion functions
- Outer joins
- Procedure calls
The escape sequence used by JDBC is:
{extension}The escape sequence is recognized and parsed by the SQL Server 2000 Driver for JDBC, which replaces the escape sequences with data store-specific grammar.
