Re: Dynamic loading of Perl Code in Postgres functions

You treat it like any other perl code (you don't have to do
anything special just because it's in postgres):

If it's pure perl code, see "require"

http://perldoc.perl.org/functions/require.html

If it's a perl module, see "use"

http://perldoc.perl.org/functions/use.html

If you want to access a C library using perl,
see XS:

http://perldoc.perl.org/perlxs.html
http://perldoc.perl.org/perlxstut.html

Subject: [GENERAL] Dynamic loading of Perl Code in Postgres functions


Hi,
I have some perl code that I need to load dynamically in my postgres
function.
How can this be accomplished?
I can do it in C using shared objects but don't know how would the same
work
with perl.
Is there anything like shared objects in Perl or something.
Thanks,
Jas
