PERL/java interface available?

[Charlie Smith <Sm...@ldschurch.org>]

Would anyone happen to know if there is a PERL/java interface where these two languages could talk to each other?

Hi Charlie:

Check out the 'Inline' modules on CPAN:

http://search.cpan.org/author/INGY/Inline-0.44/Inline.pod

You also may want to look at SWIG at:

http://www.swig.org/

I have used Inline::C and SWIG for c and c++, but not for
java; but they say they work...

Aloha => Beau;

PS: The 'Inline' modules are neat because your code is just
that - inline; it's easier to see what's going on.

Java can call any native function that's packaged in a dso or dll. (But is 
it possible to compile Perl modules to standalone dso?) Did anyone mention 
B::JVM::Jasmin or JPL? See links below...
