There is a reason that plPerl is king in this community (and I don't
even like Perl).
yeah, understood. I'm getting the request 2nd hand, from someone in a
TZ 14 hours different than my own (big company, many left hands)... so
info is trickling to me.
apparently the requester is comfortable programming in Java, and needs
to do some sorta-statistical calculations inside a function used in a
join of some 73 columns, which will get used by some reporting
software... the database in question was ported from a different rdbms
where this was a single flat table rather than a several way join, and
... well... thats all I know so far.
I've already suggested plpgsql and/or plperl.
I'm going to take a stab at building the CVS head of pljava on solaris
sparc 64bit tonight or tomorrow. it appears the 64bit community
builds of PG 8.4 were built with sunstudio 11, pg_config lists
....

It appears I have Sun C 5.9 at my disposal, not sure which version of
sunstudio this is from.

wish me luck :)
