i noticed this project just recently:

http://freshmeat.net/projects/judf/?topic_id=66

basically a wrapper using mysql w/  CREATE FUNCTION foo RETURNS STRING
SONAME "foo.so"; to run Java natively ... so you could do this:

mysql> SELECT foo("classes/MyClasss", COLUMN1, COLUMN2) FROM foobar;

i wonder what the major advantages of this really are or if its overkill, im
assuming the same thing could be done w/ php ... but beyond filtering what
would it be good for?
