Hi all, The PerlNatives extention is sort of a hack, as it is a .xs file that doesn't really involve Perl. I only put it in a .xs file to ease/generalize the building process. That's why those headers were not included at the time.
However it seems that in more recent versions of Perl some macros in the .xs files changed in order to include (calls to|types from) the Perl API, so I guess the headers are now required. Anyways it's no harm to add them. I'll do it for in the next release... Also, the PerlNatives stuff is really experimental, as mentioned in the installation procedure. You don't really need it to use PerlInterpreter or Inline::Java. Rob and all: My apologies for not being present on the list lately, I just realized this week that I wasn't getting the messages anymore since about January. Don't know what happened, I had to re-register my email address with the list.
