RE: Best way to call java from perl

Looks like if I have to use Java module to call java classes from perl, I have to run 'Java Server' provided with the module (Correct me if I am wrong). Is this a necessary step ? Is there any module which allows me to call java classes without any such active service ?


Thanks,
Mandar
