Re: JDBC.pm no longer works with Inline::Java?

I was able to get past this by reverting to perl 5.8.9 from macports.

I have 2 other machines running leopard (mac osx 10.5.8) that had no trouble, using perl 5.8.8.
However 5.10.0 (default on osx 10.6.8) was a no-go.

The Inline::Java tests pass on either, but JDBC.pm provokes errors, which makes me wonder if the Inline::Java tests have enough coverage.  I don't think that JDBC is doing anything unusual, just loading more classes.
