Support of DB2 synonyms for validateSQLStatements=yes

We would like to use the SQLValidatation during Generation of Cobol (validateSQLStatements=yes).

Because we are using DB2 Synonyms in our SQL statements, SQLValidation during Generation fails. It looks like as if only the DB2 SYSIBM.SYSTABLES is checked.

    This is actually a DB2 restriction. DB2 does not allow "qualified" tables through JDBC when the reference is actually to a synonym. So, if the tablename is qualified or you use "currentSchema" on the ConnectionURL, accessing a synonym will fail. If you use unqualified tables and the connection Userid is the qualifier or if you specify a secondary Authentication ID with the correct qualifier it works fine.
