Joe,

COPE has been around for a while and in my tests (almost a year ago now)
was stable enough for use in simple CORBA clients. I used it to call java
CORBA servers from perl clients and vice versa. The perl server side was a
little shaky at the time. I know for a fact that it has been used in a real
world project as glue between legacy systems and web-based apps. the person
who did that was quite happy with the results and the stability of COPE.
I'd give it a try. It's not much work. get your IDL, generate your perl
classes and write a small client script. shouldn't take long to see if it
works for you.

another (doable but more tedious) solution would be to write your own perl
XS extensions and use the C++ or C ORB of your choice. what you could also
look at is xml-rpc. I think there should be libraries for both perl and
java available. haven't worked with it myself, though.

hope this helps,

robert
