I am interested to develop a DXL that shall be stored in the DOORS Server NAS Space rather than with the client, and which will be executed when a trigger is fired.

Will this require me to install a DOORS Client application along with the DOORS Server in a SOLARIS 10 box.

I wish the execution and the DXL script is hidden from the client.

I have seen no indication that a server can execute dxl. However, you can store the script on the database server on within the trigger but it is still executed by client whether client is on the server or the workstation.

The trigger will fire no matter which client was used to cause the event.

However, clever use of the 'readFile()' perm along with 'eval_' can cause the trigger itself to get the body of the trigger code from a file that only exists on the server, and will therefore only do anything when run from the server. May look like attached.

Notice that when run from a client the readFile will return nothing (since the client cannot access the server's folders), and the eval_ will therefore do nothing.
