It's also possible to include your perl code directly into your java code
using JPL (java perl lingo, ships as part of standard free perl package for
last couple of years). You have to add a preprocessing step into your build
but it's pretty painless overall. Note this does not translate the perl into
java but rather facilitates the use of perl from java which should satisfy
the original issue. Check out http://www.seas.smu.edu/~jodea/ .

Subject: Re: Perl,CGI and PHP from servlets
Maybe a bit late, but I wish to straighten this one out, because
servlets can definitely execute perl scripts and you can even
capture the output. In fact, with java you can execute everything,
that you can also execute on your OS. Problem is, it is not
platform independant :)
