Is it possible for a stored procedure or database trigger
to launch an independant server-side process (such as mailx,
or any other non-oracle process)? Our database is version 7.1.6
running under Solaris.
(We don't have OCI or PRO*C, which I suspect we need to do
this sort of thing.)
Thanks in advance ...
