Hi,

where can I find information about calling external C functions from
PL/SQL. I scanned my oracle books, but couldn't find anything about this
topic!?!

TIA,

Hi,


Have a look at the ORA_FFI package - it lets you call into shareable libraries
(DLL's or whatever your platform calls them). It is embedded client-side in
forms 4.5 and so forth, not in server-side pl/sql as far as I know. Please
correct me or suggest better ways....
