Database application generator for DB2

Hi all,
I am the author of an open source PHP software, http://www.dadabik.org/, which allows to create CRUD database front-end/application without coding.
I would like to extend the support to DB2 (at the moment MySQL, PostgreSQL, Oracle and MS SQL server are supported) but I'm wondering if a similar and mature software already exists for DB2 (maybe directly from IBM), because in that case I would concentrate my efforts on other DBMSs.
Can you give me any information about?

Thanks a lot in advance,


Eugenio

For example is this one:
http://www-01.ibm.com/software/data/...n&S_CMP=ibm_im
similar to DaDaBIK or allows just the database administration?

DataStudio - in addition to administration , also helps in quick generation of SQL queries and explain them, create stored proces/functions, develop java apps(as it is based on eclipse framework) etc.

Dadabik seems to have a different utility.

After looking at your demo, I don't think IBM has anything like that. Even if they did, you have open source which could be customized by someone for other functions besides CRUD. If you need any help with DB2, feel free to ask.

I also think it would be good to generate an app that used stored procedures for all I/O, but I know that might be too much customization since there is not as much standardization across DBMS products compared to regular insert, update, delete, and select.

Thanks for the answers.
I think I will download the free version of DB2 and work on DB2 support (asking for help here if needed).
About the use of stored procedure: yes I think at the moment needs too much work.

Best,

Eugenio
