Re: Execute OS Commands From Stored Procedure

Hi,

   There is a work around, you can do it via an oracle-pipe and a (to-be-programmed) pipe server,oracle-pipes are documented in de Oracle7 app.dev. guide.
Half an hour ago I discovered PLEX, (PL/SQL EXtension), it's an C-implementation of a pipe server, you can download it from :http://tiburon.us.oracle.com/odp/public/library/cr/html/cr_util.html

Hope this will help,
