Hi Eric,

I never did see the original for this.  One software vendor I know of
actually has a CL trigger program that calls an RPGLE program that reads a
file keyed by file name - each record contains the name of a trigger program
and a status flag as to whether that trigger program is active or not -- and
for each active record, calls the trigger program.  Oh, and that's not all.
It also reads another file to determine whether changes triggered by a
particular user are processed or not.

I'm not advocating this method, I'm simply stating that it's in use.  And
yes, performance was not what you'd call optimal.  For normal user updates
via the application it could keep up.  But once one of the analysts did an
SQL UPDATE (the user profile was not in the "ignore" file) and it took a
couple of hours for the trigger programs to catch up.

I think the data queue method mentioned by Alex Moore is a far better method
of handling the requirement.
