<h2 id="FAQ">FAQ</h2>
<p>
Before you go on and read the whole manual, there are a couple of interesting questions that you might want to consider:
</p>

<p>
<b class="mono">Q:</b> When I generate source code from MySQL, can I also use it on another database?<br/>
<b class="mono">A:</b> Yes! The generated Java code will work for all supported databases, not only for the database driver that you used when you generated the code.
</p>

<p>
<b class="mono">Q:</b> When I generate source code from my developer database, can I also use it on production?<br/>
<b class="mono">A:</b> Yes! You can map your schema at code generation time or at run time. <a href="http://www.jooq.org/doc/<?=$minorVersion?>/manual/code-generation/codegen-advanced" title="Schema mapping functionality in jOOQ">See the manual for details.</a>
</p>

<p>
<b class="mono">Q:</b> Can I use jOOQ without code generation?<br/>
<b class="mono">A:</b> Yes! You can define tables, fields, conditions using Strings. <a href="http://www.jooq.org/doc/<?=$minorVersion?>/manual/getting-started/use-cases" title="Plain SQL functionality in jOOQ">See the manual for details.</a>
</p>

<p>
<b class="mono">Q:</b> Can I use jOOQ as a query builder and execute queries with Spring?<br/>
<b class="mono">A:</b> Yes! This has been done by other users and will be documented soon. <a href="http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4474365/jooq-and-spring" title="Stack Overflow question about using jOOQ with Spring">See this Stack Overflow question for details.</a>
