Dear Kirk, Through the JDBC connection you import all the data from the server and have full control over the formatting. Formatting at the server side is/should be limited. But,perhaps I am missing a point here. regards, Martin Kirk Abbott wrote:
Hello All,
Continuing with the discussion related to user_defined functions and in particular to the current problem of formatting... Java 1.5 has extensive capabilities to formatting through the java.util.Formatter class
@see http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/api/java/util/Formatter.html
Has anyone worked on getting Monetdb to access Java? If not Java, where is there some info on the interface to C?
Thanks, Kirk

Hello Kirk,
according to our documentation MonetDB/SQL supports both user defined functions follwoing the SQL standard: http://monetdb.cwi.nl/SQL/Documentation/Functions.html and binding externally (in MAL) defined functions into SQL: http://monetdb.cwi.nl/SQL/Documentation/External-Functions.html
Would either help you further?

Hello,
We are trying to move some data over to Monetdb and are finding that we are missing some of our favorite formatting functions (to_date, to_char etc.). Does Monetdb have a user defined functions extension framework? If so, we would try to mimic these functions there.
Thanks, Kirk.
