Attached is a patch that removes all of the RExec code from plpython from the current PostgreSQL CVS. In addition, plpython needs to be changed to an untrusted language in createlang. Please let me know if there are any problems. Kevin Jacobs
PL/Python - Python Procedural Language for PostgreSQL ----------------------------------------------------- $Id: README,v 1.2 2001/05/14 22:06:50 petere Exp $ Installation: configure --with-python cd src/pl/plpython gmake gmake install Test: # have postmaster running... gmake installcheck Enable language: createlang plpython dbname Note that PL/Python is currently not built automatically because the code is new and there are some portability issues. A default Python installation does not provide a shared libpython library. This is not a problem on many platforms (although it makes things less efficient), but on some platforms (especially HP-UX) the link will fail outright. To create a shared libpython, see this web page for hints: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw.py?req=show&file=faq03.030.htp Place the resulting library in the same directory as the existing static libpythonX.Y.a and relink plpython. Further documentation is available in the PostgreSQL Programmer's Guide.
