PGSQL and Image Magick

From

Hi people..  I'm learning pgsql while working on a project...
I'm attempting to interface pgsql to ImageMagick and am needing someguidance..
ImageMagick has libraries which can be accessed with PERL, C,C++, Python, Java (this is my order of preference) or can
beaccessedat the shell level.
 
I've been looking around in some of the archives... As near as Ican tell, PL/Perl doesn't want to permit access to
PerlMagick(theperl interface) because the author of Pl/Perl feels it is insecure.
 
Anyways, I'm finding the dox I have rather vague as to how to accomplishthis...  My hope is to make a PL function which
willupdate an image withdata.
 
I want to create a PL function in my database which will processrecords in a table and make calls to the IM api to
modifythe image
 
accordingly...
Can someone suggest some methods of accomplishing this?
I'm using 7.0.2 on FreeBSD 4.1
Thank-you,Scott.
