Re: New to Inline::Java and a quick question

Well, I'm using JDBC.pm to access the 
inline::Java stuff, and I could never get it to 
work with >5.8.9, and never got any response from 
Tim Bunce or Patrick, so I eventually gave up on 
it.

It is possible that JDBC is doing something 
different, but I doubt it, as it is a very simple 
module.  It basically does a lot of runtime 
"studying" in order to add all the java.sql 
classes to main:: to make it easier to call.

Best you can do is to write some tests and try the later environment.

I could not get the JDBC tests to run in a later 
env, and the tests have been broken on CPAN 
testers for a long time.
