INTRODUCTION:
Inline::Java - Write Perl classes in Java.
Inline::Java lets you write Perl classes in Java.
Example:
use Inline Java => <<'END',
class JAxH {
public JAxH(String x){
System.out.println("Just Another " + x + " Hacker") ;
}
}
END
new JAxH('Inline') ;
When run, this complete program prints:
Just Another Inline Hacker
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
INSTALLATION:
- This module requires Inline version 0.31 or higher to be installed.
- It also requires a version of the Java SDK 1.2 or higher to be
installed. You can get the latest Java SDK from Sun Microsystems
at http://java.sun.com. Follow the provided instructions in order
to install the Java SDK properly.
To install Inline::Java do this:
perl Makefile.PL
make
make test (see Note 2)
make install
You have to 'make install' before you can run it successfully.
Note 1: Use nmake on Windows systems. If you are using the COMMAND.COM shell
under Windows, Inline::Java will try to detect it. If it doesn't,
you should set the PERL_INLINE_JAVA_COMMAND_COM environment variable
to a true value. You also will need set this whenever you use the module
later on.
Note 2: In order for 'make test' to run properly, you should put the
directory to your Java binaries in either your PATH environment variable
or in the PERL_INLINE_JAVA_BIN environment variable. 'make test' will remind you
if you don't do this.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FEATURES:
WARNING: THIS IS ALPHA SOFTWARE. It is incomplete and possibly unreliable.
It is also possible that some elements of the interface (API) will
change in future releases.
Inline::Java version 0.01 includes:
+ All classes and their public methods are exported to Perl, relative
to your current package.
+ All objects (except arrays) and primitive Java types are supported as
method parameters.
