How to develop a third-party SAS PROC?

Is it possible, as a third party, to develop SAS PROC? I am thinking of something like a Matlab toolkit or R package.

I searched everywhere for information on how to do this, and the lack of discussion makes me believe that this has not been done. Can anyone point out counterexamples, preferably with some understanding of both technical and business issues?

You can create your own PROC using the SAS / TOOLKIT product if you have a license. I do not think that it is widely used by SAS clients. I made a very trivial example with him many years ago to see what was involved. I think most SAS clients use SAS Macro , SAS / AF, and more recently, PROC FCMP for their custom code bundling requirements (there are also ways to call Java object methods and Windows DLL routines ).
