Short answer - no. Details:
So the ASE 16.0 SP02 documentation covers how table variables can be created and consumed within a SQL batch or stored procedure. I would not expect Java/Perl applications to coding such SQL batches within the application. They would prefer to attach Client side objects such as DataTable in .NET to this type. This does not work today and will need additional support from ASE and Client Libraries.

Having these cases help us priroritize the work.
