All,
I have a need to create/copy/delete files on my server from a function
in PostreSql. I am running 8.x PostreSql on Windows 200x and my
functions etc are currently only in PL/pgSQL. Is there a way to create
files/copy them and delete them from PL/pgSQL or could i call an
external bat file job from PL/pgSQL.
Or do I need to branch into doing something with a different language
(perhaps PL/PerlU)? If anyone has an example or experience they could
share I would appreciate it.
I had thought about having a table with a list of operations and then
scheduling a job in the OS to call and execute them but these operations
need to happen in real time.
Thanks in advance,
Oisin
