I don't really quite understand what you're trying to do.
What do you expect it to print?
You've returned a User object. What are it's public methods? What happens when
you call them?
You have a reference to a java object. The proxy details aren't that important,
but you should be calling whatever public methods are actually implemented by
your object.
For instance, if User had something like:
public String getFirstName(){
return firstName;
}
On the perl side you could do:
$name = $obj->getFirstName();
Does that help you?
