Answer / swetha

In case of storedprocedure transformation procedure will be
compiled and executed in a relational data source.yoU need
data base connection to import the stored procedure in to
your maping.Where as in external procedure transformation
procedure or function will be executed out side of data
source.Ie you need to make it as a DLL to access in your
maping.No need to have data base connection in case of
external procedure transformation.

What is difference between stored procedure transformation and external procedure transformation?..

Answer / manjunath

Stored procedure transformation is used to invoke the database procedure or function stored in the database. it needs the connection to the database. Where as the external procedure transformation is used to invoke the application function developed either in C/C++/VB.The external procedure needs to be bind with the external procedure transformation in the designer so the the application function would be loaded at the run time like a DDL.
