Add 4 new UDFs:

  • SaveBlobToFile

-> saves a blob to a file

  • LoadBlobFromFile

-> loads a blob from a file

  • ShellExecute

-> allows the ibserver to execute some stuff on the
server (the stuff is executed invisible)

If you create just temporary file, it should be possible to
make a call to a 4th UDF:

  • DeleteFile

in order to delete the temporary file

WHY DO I NEED THIS?

I get a rtf text stored in a blob.

I want to convert it into XSL-FO and write it back to the
db

easiest way is to save the blob into a file (triggered),
run a script which does the convertion, read the
resulting file(s) back into my db
