I have a program that executes certain responses to a command sent in via a remote user. I want to be able to make this flexible and be able to add commands whenever. I was thinking of having a database of the commands and their proper responses... is it at all possible for my program to execute code via a stored database value?
Basically I want to be able to add commands without a recompile of the program everytime.
I think you'd need to make some kind of plugin based system to add new commends without a recompile. I guess it depends though and what the commands are suppose to be or do. Are they just raw code? If so then plugins. If they just determine what table to load data from or something like that then there is probably an easier way. With plugins you wouldn't have to recompile the app but you'd have to write the code for the command(s) dll(s) and compile them then add them to the app as a plugin.
