Hi,
I didn't build (./configure --with-perl) the makefile with perl and a
developer wants it now.
Is there a way to add perl with out a complete re-instsall like with
the create lang command?
Has anyone read anything about about the perl PL ? Someone in our
group said he read its really archaic and can cause problems. Is that
old news?
Old news. Plperl is actively maintained and works very well. You can add
plPerl if you have source without recompiling the whole database just:
cd postgresql.src/src/pl/perl (that might me plperl... it is early) and
do a make, make install.
If you don't have a configured source tree, make sure you configure first.
Thanks again,
