I am currently writing an event driven programming which is suppose to call an external program whenever i have updates to a particular table in the mysql database.

Using triggers, i should be able to capture the updates to the table. But is there any way i can call an external program from a stored procedure?

I tried experimenting with the C API, but found that for most cases, its a C program that is trying to connect to the mysql database. For my case, its the even from the database that is trying to call or connect to a C program.

How can i do this?
