We have an external vendor with a ruby app, and would like to move some of the logic into the database using stored procedures.

It would of course be troublesome to have to maintain dual ruby/pl/sql source trees, so it would be nice if we could call the ruby logic. It seems this might be feasible, since I can bind the stored procedure to a C function, and manage a ruby interpreter in that function to execute the logic.

Thanks all!
