Shazin Sadakath commented on DERBY-4467:
----------------------------------------

Hi Rick,

What I have done thus far was working on an idea to make Derby as friendly as 
possible to non Java Developers thus enabling
derby to reach a large no of developers. As a solution for that I have just 
brought forward this.

I have already gone through what are the changes necessary to enabling 
declaring of these sort of Stored Routines but I haven't implemented yet.
That is because I knew that my idea would also have a lot of disadvantages just 
as the one Dag pointed out.

Anyway I will try my best to implement what you asked and submit so that you 
can decide what needs to done.

Thanks,
Shazin

> I have been working on an idea that lets you create Stored Procedures using 
> languages other than Java with a perspective of Apache Derby as a Network 
> Server. I tried this by using Sun Java Scripting API for JRE 1.6+ and Apache 
> BSF http://jakarta.apache.org/bsf/ for JRE 1.4+.
> This has certain advantages when it comes to compiled java stored routines.
> 1. It is dynamic.
> 2. Requires no configuration of classpath.
> 3. Requires no use of SQLJ.INSTALL_JAR and SQLJ.REPLACE_JAR.
> 4. Very easy to maintain
> 5. Allows the use of Sun Java Runtime Library via Object Binding.
> 6. Supports JavaScript, Jython, Dynamic Java and many more scripting 
> languages. https://scripting.dev.java.net/
> 7. No need of introducing a new SQL/PSM grammar to the current SQLParser.
> There are two approaches for this enhancement. 
> 1. Having this as an external utility component such as ij, dblooks
> 2. Having this as a built in feature.
> I have done this in the former method for demonstration purpose.
