when passing double values between Perl and Java

Perl scalar passed as a java.lang.CharSequence will instantiate
a java.lang.String on the Java side
- Added BUILD_JNI, BUILD_PERL_NATIVES, BUILD_PERL_INTERPRETER and JVM_LIB_TYPE build
configuration options to help with automated builds
- Added BIND configuration option. See docs for details.
Note: The Java JVM server noe listens on localhost by default (instead of 0.0.0.0).

- Added HOST configuration option to access JVM server remotely
- Fixed bug with paths in Cygwin

- Extended InlineJavaClassLoader from current thread ClassLoader to enable it to work
properly under Tomcat

since it was not portable
- Fixed bug (found by Dean Thayer) with socket not closed properly in Java
- Other minor bug fixes
0.49
- Added PerlInterpreter: require/eval Perl code directly from Java
- Reworked type casting: changes are NOT backwards compatible :(
- Callbacks can now be called in list context using "@function_name"
- Renamed PerlNatives stuff
- Added external command line tool to start/stop a SHARED_JVM server
- Applied JNI memory leak patch by Jeff Janes
- Removed exports from Inline::Java::Portable
- Split and updated documentation
0.47 Sat Feb 14 10:00:00 EST 2004
- Fixed bugs in portability code and added HPUX, AIX and Solaris specifics
- Tweaked CLASSPATH directory order
- Changed port numbers for SHARED_JVM tests in order to avoid clashes
with running installations
- Made PerlNatives optional
0.46 Web Feb 04 20:00:00 EST 2004
- Fixed Natives.xs to work with ExtUtils::ParseXS
0.45 Fri Jan 30 20:00:00 EST 2004
- Fixed Makefile.PL arguments that were getting lost
- Fixed deprecated require call
- Fixed support for symbolic links in J2SDK directory
- Basic support for J2SDK 1.5
- Added new experimental feature: PerlNatives
0.44 Sun Nov 23 15:47:06 EST 2003
- Callbacks from multiple threads are now supported
- Refactored (again...) studying/.jdat/cache stuff
- Added PRIVATE mode for use with SHARED_JVM
- Added DEBUGGER mode that launches jdb
- Fixed memory leak in JNI code (patch submitted by Dave Blob)
0.43 Tue Oct 14 13:18:25 EDT 2003
- Restored $VERSION in each .pm file
- Inline::Java now formerly requires Perl 5.6
0.42 Fri Sep 5 13:18:25 EDT 2003
- Fixed more CLASSPATH issues. CLASSPATH now works like this:
* CLASSPATH environment variable is global
* CLASSPATH configuration option is local to the user class loader
- Added method cache to increase performance and decrease reflection
API calls
- Altered and documented the study_classes() function
- Added EXTRA_JAVA_ARGS and EXTRA_JAVAC_ARGS config options
0.41 Mon Jul 14 13:18:25 EDT 2003
- Fixed CLASSPATH bug
- Possibly (!) fixed test suite problems under heavy load
0.40 Fri Apr 11 11:00:00 EST 2003
- Patch by Doug MacEachern to allow running under servlet engines.
- Patch by John Kinsley for handling empty arrays.
- Custom ClassLoader allows for better isolation of user code and
dynamic 'CLASSPATH' (multiple sections/clients are now totally
independant).
- Core Java code is now compiled separately (at install time) instead
of with the user code (for each script). This dramatically improves
build time.
- Default port number changed to 0 (next available port number).
This allows many multiple users to run concurrently without
clashes.
Note: The default port on systems where this feature is not
available has remained 7890.
Note: The default port for SHARED_JVM mode is now 7891.
- SHARED_JVM mode now calls release_JVM() automatically.
- UTF8 support
- User code can now be a public class and (optionally) inside a package.
- Callback classes have changed.
Note: These classes are now in the org.perl.inline.java package.
Note: PerlException has been renamed InlineJavaPerlException.
Note: If you presently use callbacks, your code may now no longer compile.
You will need to apply the changes listed above to fix it.
- study_classes now returns the package in which the studied classes
have been put.
- Many bug fixes and documentation corrections.
