I thought you might also need to rename those files and directories so that they match what bootstrap() expects them to be ..... but I'm not sure about this. Yes, I renamed the directories to match what bootstrap expects. > > I then removed "use Inline" line and replaced it with : > > require DynaLoader; > our @ISA = qw (DynaLoader); > bootstrap packagename; I gave the name of my package xxxDriver.

Not sure - I haven't tried that particular hack myself. The info I've supplied is as supplied to me by someone who said it works. I don't doubt that it did work - but I'm not so sure that the information provided is complete. I would first have tried running the perl script as a perl script. If that doesn't work, then there's no way that the executable is going to work - and it's easier to work out what's wrong from the error messages you get from running the perl script, than from the error messages you get when you build/run a perlapp executable. After all that hacking, will it still work ok as a perl script ? (if not, please provide error messages.) I'll try this ASAP and let you know. > > I get this error after installing my application and trying to connect > to Inline java. > I don't understand what you mean by "trying to connect to Inline java". The whole point of the exercise is to avoid Inline altogether. That's right. I just meant that the Perl code was trying to access the Java code. > Here is the output of perl -V : Thanks. I should also have asked for the name of the module. From the original error message it looks like it's called Drivers::xxxDriver. Is that correct ? Yes. Does xxxDriver.so need to load any other shared libs ? Does it need to be renamed to libxxxDriver.so ? No. Sorry for all of the questions - but it's hard to be of much use without the additional info. Thanks for your quick responses. -Radha
