Has anyone tried to make a comparable thing to an "External Method" but that is contained in the database itself?
I believe that this was rejected by DC because of security issues. Letting people store and run Python code directly in the database is essentially the same as giving someone complete access to the system.
Does python have anything equivalent to Perl's taint mode? Because if it does then this could be used. That and restricting allowable APIs from internal methods - again, if this is possible. --- Julian Morrison Programmer (Zereau Ltd)
