This really is my week for asking for help.

We have a project lead/developer here who wants to use a java stored
procedure, wrapped in a PL/SQL function, to implement a search function
on the site.

Besides the fact that this is the first I've heard of the request, and
that I think he is reinventing the wheel in what he wants to do in this
procedure (normalize text data that we already GET normalized
elsewhere), and that we are supposed to go into QA testing by the end
of the month and he STILL hasn't locked down the schema etc....

Personal prejudices aside, I've heard vague rumblings that Java in the
database is not optimal. We'll be in 9iR2, although he's developing
against an 8.1.7 database (don't ask, I'm not responsible for that
database other than to provide him with schema ddl, there IS no real
development server here).

Before I categorically say no or yes, are there any "gotchas" I need to
look out for?

Thanks

Rachel
