Calling Perl through SOAP


I successfully installed SOAP yesterday and am able to publish Java classes and
access their methods. However, when I try to publish Perl classes and access
their methods, it fails.

When I use Perl at both the client and server ends, I can't see the reason why
it fails. However, when I use Java at the client end and Perl at the server end,
I get the following error:

Fault= SOAP-ENV:Server.BadTargetObjectURI, Unable to load BSF: script services
not available without BSF: com.ibm.bsf.BSFManager

I found the BSF code at
http://oss.software.ibm.com/developerworks/opensource/bsf/?dwzone=linux, but I
cannot access it through CVS. Any ideas how to publish and access Perl methods,
or has this functionality been replaced with SOAP::Lite and the like?
