Forum OpenACS Q&A: Re: Defining a skinny, new acs-object type

Collapse
Posted by Antonio Pisano on
There exists also another way, that is based on stored procedures. If one look e.g.:

https://openacs.org/api-doc/proc-view?proc=::xo::db::sql::acs_object_type+proc+create_type&source_p=1

This is another tcl way to build a new acs_object type.

This kind of procs in the ::xo::db::sql namespace are automatically created at startup for every proc defined in the acs_function_args table. One way to see how this machinery works is grepping in the sql code for:

define_function_args

Hope this helps
