The PL/Python intepreter is a full Python interpreter. + +PL/Python is currently only available as an "untrusted" language +(meaning it does not offer any way of restricting what users can do +in it). It has therefore been named "plpythonu". The trusted variant +plpython may become available again in future, if a new secure execution +mechanism is developed in Python. |
