Re: executing os commands from a function

Thanks for replies.

Good deal of info

While plsh seems to be an easier approach , I am also inclined in a an ESQL/C type app to listen to an event

@Igor Neyman

It is just maybe I have missed a sample of a C app  in that area, similar like ESQLC

Cheers

I used plsh extension but I had to use two functions and a trigger, see code below

​I don't see any way to not use a trigger given your requirement.  And as written I don't see that you need the second function​ - just write the trigger function in plsh.  Admittedly its probably better to have two functions from an architecture standpoint.

Listen/Notify doesn't seem to make sense as you want the server to ensure that the file exists - not some other client that may or may not be connected.
