A PL/Perl function can load external code with "use", "require", or "do". Since those are potentially dangerous operations you'll need to create the function with plperlu, which means you'll need to create the function as a database superuser. See "Trusted and Untrusted PL/Perl" in the documentation for more information. http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.1/interactive/plperl-trusted.html Regarding "use", "require", and "do" see the Perl documentation, in particular the perlfunc and perlmod manual pages. -- Michael Fuhr ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 4: Have you searched our list archives? http://archives.postgresql.org
