Patrick, thanks for your prompt reply!
first, let me say that Inline::Java is highly magical. thanks for your efforts. I am using Inline-Java-0.47. to reduce the number of variables, I've backed up to trying the example at http://search.cpan.org/~patl/Inline-Java-0.32/Java.pod#USING_Inline::Java_UNDER_MOD_PERL as you know, that example has a simple class definition directly inline with the source, uses SHARED_JVM=>1 and no other options. it exhibits the same behavior. maybe this is something windows-specific? has anyone tried this on windows? $fd is supposed to be (and is) a GLOB. it turns out that new_from_fd() calls fdopen() which calls open(). it is the open call which fails. but it only fails on STDIN. STDOUT and STDERR appear to process normally. I have no idea why its failing but it is doing so only from within mod_perl. thanks again for any help you can provide, & regards, -Andy -----Original Message----- From: Patrick LeBoutillier [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, April 22, 2004 12:46 PM To: Andy Lowe Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Inline::Java with mod_perl Apache::Registry [was: Re: Inline Cwith mod_perl Apache::Registry] Hi A., A while back I had gotten Inline::Java to work under mod_perl, but in Linux. I have never used mod_perl in Windows. What Inline::Java version and what options (SHARED_JVM, ...) are you using? Do you know what $fd is supposed to point to when it fails?
