MySQL Gets Functions in Java

Posted by michael on from the we-love-you-krow dept.

Java Coward writes "Eric Herman and MySQL's Brian "Krow" Aker have released code to allow the DBMS MySQL to run Java natively inside of the database. The code allows users to write functions inside of the database that can be then used in SELECT/INSERT/UPDATE statements. So when will someone do Ruby?"

    I completely agree. Java is overkill for this, and IMO not as stable or reliable as other alternatives.

    Yeah, fuck paying for a feature that took a lot of work to implement and that you want badly. The nerve of those assholes, charging money for their work.

    A real man would other get off his ass and code it himself, or support the damn developers who do. Note "Bitch on /." is not listed. Free software is turning the world into a bunch of whining ingrates.
