Hello monks!
I need to embed Perl into Java for Win32, and I was trying to use JPL, that comes in the Perl sources as an extra option to build, but it tells that it's not working for Win32 yet (from 1999)! Someone knows why this isn't working for Win32?
Actually someone have used JPL? It seems a good idea, specially because we can declare Perl code directly inside a Java class.
Any feedback about that will be appreciated. Thanks in advance. ;-P

I don't belive JPL is being actively maintained.

Why do you need to embed Perl into Java? If you just want support from a scripting language, then I'd suggest going with jPython. If you need something that is already working in Perl, then I'd suggest having one call the other through some kind of RPC mechanism. If you have some other need, I'd have to hear it described in detail to figure out what I'd suggest.

Here's a good idea from the mind of

Another option is something we're implementing right now - use XML-RPC to encapsulate the areas that Perl and Java both need to talk to. We have a Perl app and a Java app that both need to work with the same tables, but those tables are in constant flux. So, we are putting up an XML-RPC layer to hide the details. Took us 30 minutes to get XML-RPC up and running using
Frontier::RPC2 as the server. (That included compiling Apache1 and MP1.)

I shouldn't have to say this, but any code, unless otherwise stated, is untested
