-=head1 DESCRIPTION
-
-The C<Inline::Java> module allows you to put Java source code
-directly "inline" in a Perl script or module. A Java compiler
-is launched and the Java code is compiled. Then Perl asks the
-Java classes what public methods have been defined. These classes 
-and methods are available to the Perl program as if they had been 
-written in Perl.
-
-The process of interrogating the Java classes for public methods
-occurs the first time you run your Java code. The namespace is
-cached, and subsequent calls use the cached version.
-   Z<>
-
-
-=head1 USING THE Inline::Java MODULE
-
-C<Inline::Java> is driven by fundamentally the same idea as other
-C<Inline> language modules, like C<Inline::C> or C<Inline::CPP>. 
-Because Java is both compiled and interpreted, the method of getting 
-your code is different, but overall, using C<Inline::Java> is very similar
-to any other C<Inline> language module.
-
-This section will explain the different ways to C<use> Inline::Java.
-For more details on C<Inline>, see 'perldoc Inline'. 
-
-B<Basic Usage>
-
-The most basic form for using C<Inline::Java> is:
-
-   use Inline Java => 'Java source code' ;
-
-Of course, you can use Perl's "here document" style of quoting to make 
-the code slightly easier to read:
-
-   use Inline Java => <<'END';
-
-      Java source code goes here.
-
-   END
-
-The source code can also be specified as a filename, a subroutine
-reference (sub routine should return source code), or an array
-reference (array contains lines of source code). This information
-is detailed in 'perldoc Inline'.
-
-In order for C<Inline::Java> to function properly, it needs to know 
-where to find a Java 2 SDK on your machine. This is done using one 
-of the following techniques:
-
-   - set the J2SDK configuration option to the correct directory
-   - set the PERL_INLINE_JAVA_J2SDK environment variable to the 
-     correct directory
-
-If none of these are specified, C<Inline::Java> will use the Java
-2 SDK that was specified a install time (see below).
-
-
-=head1 DEFAULT JAVA 2 SDK
-
-When C<Inline::Java> was installed, the path to the Java 2 SDK that was 
-used was stored in a file called default_j2sdk.pl that resides with
-the C<Inline::Java> module. You can find this file by using the following
-command:
-
-    % perl -MInline::Java=j2sdk
-
-If you wish to permanently change the default Java 2 SDK that is used
-by C<Inline::Java>, edit this file and change the value found there.
-If you wish use a different Java 2 SDK temporarily, see the J2SDK 
-configuration option described below.
-
-
-=head1 CONFIGURATION OPTIONS
-
-There are a number of configuration options that dictate the 
-behavior of C<Inline::Java>:
-
-   J2SDK: 
-      Specifies the path to your Java 2 SDK. 
-	  Ex: J2SDK => '/my/java/2/sdk/path'
-      Note: This configuration option only has an effect on the first
-      'use Inline Java' call inside a Perl script, since all other calls 
-      make use of the same JVM.
-
-   PORT:
-      Specifies the starting port number for the server. If many
-      C<Inline::Java> blocks are declared, the port number is 
-      incremented each time.	
-      Default is 0 (next available port number).
-      Default for SHARED_JVM mode is 7890.
-      Ex: PORT => 4567
-      Note: This configuration option only has an effect on the first
-      'use Inline Java' call inside a Perl script, since all other calls
-      make use of the same JVM.
-
-   STARTUP_DELAY:
-      Specifies the maximum number of seconds that the Perl script
-      will try to connect to the Java server. In other this is the
-      delay that Perl gives to the Java server to start.
-      Default is 15 seconds.
-      Ex: STARTUP_DELAY => 20
-      Note: This configuration option only has an effect on the first
-      'use Inline Java' call inside a Perl script, since all other calls 
-      make use of the same JVM.
-
-   CLASSPATH:
-      Adds the specified CLASSPATH. This CLASSPATH will only be available
-      threw the use classloader. To set the CLASSPATH globally, use the 
-      CLASSPATH environment variable.
-      Ex: CLASSPATH => '/my/other/java/classses'
-
-   JNI:
-      Toggles the execution mode. The default is to use the client/server
-      mode. To use the JNI extension (you must have built it at install 
-      time though. See README and README.JNI for more information), set 
-      JNI to 1.
-      Ex: JNI => 1
-      Note: This configuration option only has an effect on the first
-      'use Inline Java' call inside a Perl script, since all other calls 
-      make use of the same JVM.
-
-   EXTRA_JAVA_ARGS:
-   EXTRA_JAVAC_ARGS:
-      Specify extra command line parameters to be passed to, respectively,  
-      the JVM and the Java compiler. Use with caution as some options may 
-      alter normal C<Inline::Java> behavior.
-      Ex: EXTRA_JAVA_ARGS => '-Xmx96m'
-      Note: EXTRA_JAVA_ARGS only has an effect on the first
-      'use Inline Java' call inside a Perl script, since all other calls 
-      make use of the same JVM.
-
-   EMBEDDED_JNI:
-      Same as JNI, except C<Inline::Java> expects the JVM to already be
-      loaded and to have loaded the Perl interpreter that is running the
-      script. This is an advanced feature that should only be need in
-      very specific circumstances.
-      Ex: EMBEDDED_JNI => 1
-      Note: The EMBEDDED_JNI option sets the JNI option.
-      Note: This configuration option only has an effect on the first
-      'use Inline Java' call inside a Perl script, since all other calls 
-      make use of the same JVM.
-
-   SHARED_JVM:
-      This mode enables mutiple processes to share the same JVM. It was 
-      created mainly in order to be able to use C<Inline::Java> under 
-      mod_perl. 
-      Ex: SHARED_JVM => 1
-      Note: This configuration option only has an effect on the first
-      'use Inline Java' call inside a Perl script, since all other calls 
-      make use of the same JVM.
-
-   PRIVATE:
-      In SHARED_JVM mode, makes every connection to the JVM use a different
-      classloader so that each connection is isolated from the others.
-      Ex: PRIVATE => 1
-      Note: This configuration option only has an effect on the first
-      'use Inline Java' call inside a Perl script, since all other calls
-      make use of the same JVM.
-
-   DEBUG:
-      Enables debugging info. Debugging now uses levels (1 through 5)
-      that (loosely) follow these definitions:
-        1 = Major program steps
-        2 = Object creation/destruction
-        3 = Method/member accesses + packet dumps
-        4 = Everything else
-        5 = Data structure dumps
-      Ex: DEBUG => 2
-
-   DEBUGGER:
-      Starts jdb, (the Java debugger) instead of the regular Java JVM.
-      This option will also cause the Java code to be compiled using the
-      '-g' switch for extra debugging information. EXTRA_JAVA_ARGS can
-      be used use to pass extra options to the debugger.
-      Ex: DEBUGGER => 1
-
-   WARN_METHOD_SELECT:
-      Throws a warning when C<Inline::Java> has to 'choose' between 
-      different method signatures. The warning states the possible 
-      choices and the signature chosen.
-      Ex: WARN_METHOD_SELECT => 1
-
-   STUDY:
-      Takes an array of Java classes that you wish to have 
-      C<Inline::Java> learn about so that you can use them inside Perl.
-      Ex: STUDY => ['java.lang.HashMap', 'my.class']
-
-   AUTOSTUDY:
-      Makes C<Inline::Java> automatically study unknown classes it
-      encounters them.
-      Ex: AUTOSTUDY => 1
-
-
-=head1 ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
-
-Every configuration option listed above, with the exception of STUDY,
-can be specified using an environment variable named using the 
-following convention:
-
-   PERL_INLINE_JAVA_<option name>
-
-For example, your can specified the JNI option usng the 
-PERL_INLINE_JAVA_JNI environment variable. 
-
-Note that environment variables take precedence over options specified
-in the script itself.
-
-Under Win32, you can also use set the PERL_INLINE_JAVA_COMMAND_COM 
-environment variable to a true value to indicate that you are using 
-the command.com shell. However, C<Inline::Java> should normally be 
-able to determine this on its own.
-
-
-=head1 CLASSES AND OBJECTS
-
-Because Java is object oriented, any interface between Perl and Java
-needs to support Java classes adequately.
-
-Example: 
-
-=for comment
-
-   use Inline Java => <<'END' ;
-      class Pod_1 {
-         String data = "data" ;
-         static String sdata = "static data" ;
-
-         public Pod_1(){
-         }
-
-         public String get_data(){
-            return data ;
-         }
-
-         public static String get_static_data(){
-            return sdata ;
-         }
-
-         public void set_data(String d){
-            data = d ;
-         }
-
-         private void priv(){
-         }
-      }
-   END
-
-   my $obj = new Pod_1 ;
-   print($obj->get_data() . "\n") ; # prints data
-   $obj->set_data("new data") ;
-   print($obj->get_data() . "\n") ; # prints new data
-
-=for comment
-
-C<Inline::Java> created a new namespace called C<main::Pod_1> and 
-created the following functions:
-
-   sub main::Pod_::new { ... }
-   sub main::Pod_::Pod_1 { ... }
-   sub main::Pod_::get_data { ... }
-   sub main::Pod_::get_sdata { ... }
-   sub main::Pod_::set_data { ... }
-   sub main::Pod_::DESTROY { ... }
-
-Note that only the public methods are exported to Perl. 
-
-Inner classes are also supported, you simply need to supply a reference
-to an outer class object as the first parameter of the constructor:
-
-=for comment
-
-   use Inline Java => <<'END' ;
-      class Pod_2 {
-         public Pod_2(){
-         }
-
-         public class Pod_2_Inner {
-            public String name = "Pod_2_Inner" ;
-
-            public Pod_2_Inner(){
-            }
-         }
-      }
-   END
-
-   my $obj = new Pod_2() ;
-   my $obj2 = new Pod_2::Pod_2_Inner($obj) ;
-   print($obj2->{name} . "\n") ; # prints Pod_2_Inner
-
-=for comment
-
-=head1 METHODS
-
-In the previous example we have seen how to call a method. You can also
-call static methods in the following manner:
-
-   print Pod_1->get_sdata() . "\n" ; # prints static data
-   # or
-   my $obj = new Pod_1() ;
-   print $obj->get_sdata() . "\n" ; # prints static data  
-
-You can pass any kind of Perl scalar or any Java object to a method. It
-will be automatically converted to the correct type:
-
-=for comment
-
-   use Inline Java => <<'END' ;
-      class Pod_3_arg {
-         public Pod_3_arg(){
-         }
-      }
-      class Pod_3 {
-         public int n ;
-
-         public Pod_3(int i, String j, Pod_3_arg k) {
-            n = i ;
-         }
-      }
-   END
-
-   my $obj = new Pod_3_arg() ;
-   my $obj2 = new Pod_3(5, "toto", $obj) ;
-   print($obj2->{n} . "\n") ; # prints 5
-
-=for comment
-
-will work fine. These objects can be of any type, even if these types
-are not known to C<Inline::Java>. This is also true for return types:
-
-=for comment
-
-   use Inline Java => <<'END' ;
-      import java.util.* ;
-
-      class Pod_4 {
-         public Pod_4(){
-         }
-
-         public HashMap get_hash(){
-            HashMap h = new HashMap() ;
-            h.put("key", "value") ;
-
-            return h ;
-         }
-
-         public String do_stuff_to_hash(HashMap h){
-           return (String)h.get("key") ;
-         }
-      }
-   END
-
-   my $obj = new Pod_4() ;
-   my $h = $obj->get_hash() ;
-   print($obj->do_stuff_to_hash($h) . "\n") ; # prints value
-
-=for comment
-
-Objects of types unknown to Perl can exist in the Perl space, you just 
-can't call any of their methods. See the STUDYING section for more
-information on how to tell C<Inline::Java> to learn about these classes.
-   Z<>
-
-
-=head1 MEMBER VARIABLES
-
-You can also access all public member variables (static or not) from Perl.
-As with method arguments, the types of these variables does not need to
-be known to Perl:
-
-=for comment
-
-   use Inline Java => <<'END' ;
-      import java.util.* ;
-
-      class Pod_5 {
-         public int i ;
-         public static HashMap hm ;
-
-         public Pod_5(){
-         }
-     }
-   END
-
-   my $obj = new Pod_5() ;
-   $obj->{i} = 2 ;
-   print($obj->{i} . "\n") ; # prints 2
-   my $hm1 = $obj->{hm} ; # instance way
-   my $hm2 = $Pod_4::hm ; # static way   
-
-=for comment
-
-Note: Watch out for typos when accessing members in the static fashion,
-'use strict' will not catch them since they have a package name...
-   Z<>
-
-
-=head1 ARRAYS
-
-You can also send, receive and modify arrays. This is done simply by
-using Perl lists:
-
-=for comment
-
-   use Inline Java => <<'END' ;
-      import java.util.* ;
-
-      class Pod_6 {
-         public int i[] = {5, 6, 7} ;
-
-         public Pod_6(){
-         }
-
-         public String [] f(String a[]){
-            return a ;
-         }
-
-         public String [][] f(String a[][]){
-            return a ;
-         }
-     }
-   END
-
-   my $obj = new Pod_6() ;
-   my $i_2 = $obj->{i}->[2] ; # 7
-   print($i_2 . "\n") ; # prints 7
-
-   my $a1 = $obj->f(["a", "b", "c"]) ; # String []
-   my $a2 = $obj->f([
-      ["00", "01"],
-      ["10", "11"],
-   ]) ; # String [][]
-   print($a2->[1]->[0] . "\n") ; # prints 10
-

-
-=head1 TYPE CASTING
-
-Sometimes when a class as many signatures for the same method, 
-C<Inline::Java> will have to select one of the signatures based on 
-the arguments that are passed:
-
-=for comment
-
-   use Inline Java => <<'END' ;
-      class Pod_7 {
-         public Pod_7(){
-         }
-
-         public String f(int i){
-            return "int" ;
-         }
-
-         public String f(char c){
-            return "char" ;
-         }
-      }
-   END
-
-   my $obj = new Pod_7() ;
-   print($obj->f('5') . "\n") ; # prints int
-
-=for comment
-
-In this case, C<Inline::Java> will call f(int i), because '5' is an integer.
-But '5' is a valid char as well. So to force the call of f(char c), do the 
-following:
-
-   use Inline::Java qw(cast) ;
-   $obj->f(cast('char', '5')) ;
-   # or
-   $obj->f(Inline::Java::cast('char', '5')) ;
-
-The cast function forces the selection of the matching signature. Note that
-the cast must match the argument type exactly. Casting to a class that 
-extends the argument type will not work.
-
-Another case where type casting is need is when one wants to pass an array
-as a java.lang.Object:
-
-   use Inline Java => <<'END';
-      class Pod_8 {
-         public Object o ;
-         int a[] = {1, 2, 3} ;
-
-         public Pod_8() {
-         }
-      }
-   END
-
-   my $obj = new Pod_8() ;
-   $obj->{o} = [1, 2, 3] ;	# No!
-
-The reason why this will not work is simple. When C<Inline::Java> sees an
-array, it checks the Java type you are trying to match it against to validate
-the construction of your Perl list. But in this case, it can't validate
-the array because you're assigning it to an Object. You must use the 3 
-parameter version of the cast function to do this:
-
-   $obj->{o} = Inline::Java::cast(
-     "java.lang.Object",
-     [1, 2, 3],
-     "[Ljava.lang.String;") ;
-
-This tells C<Inline::Java> to validate your Perl list as a String [], and 
-then cast it as an Object.
-
-Here is how to construct the array type representations:
-
-  [<type>  -> 1 dimensional <type> array
-  [[<type> -> 2 dimensional <type> array
-  ...
-
-  where <type> is one of:
-    B byte     S short     I int     J long  
-    F float    D double    C char    Z boolean
-
-    L<class>; array of <class> objects
-
-This is described in more detail in most Java books that talk about
-reflection.
-
-But you only need to do this if you have a Perl list. If you already have a 
-Java array reference obtained from elsewhere, you don't even need to cast:
-
-   $obj->{o} = $obj->{a} ;
-
-
-=head1 EXCEPTIONS
-
-You can now (as of 0.31) catch exceptions as objects when they are thrown 
-from Java. To do this you use the regular Perl exception tools: eval and 
-$@. A helper function named 'caught' is provided to help determine the 
-type of the exception. Here is a example of a typical use:
-
-=for comment
-
-   use Inline Java => <<'END' ;
-      import java.util.* ;
-
-      class Pod_9 {
-         public Pod_9(boolean t) throws Exception {
-            if (t){
-               throw new Exception("ouch!") ;
-            }
-         }
-      }
-   END
-
-   use Inline::Java qw(caught) ;
-
-   eval {
-	   my $obj = new Pod_9(1) ;
-   } ;
-   if ($@){
-      if (caught("java.lang.Exception")){
-         my $msg = $@->getMessage() ;
-         print($msg . "\n") ; # prints ouch!
-      }
-      else{
-         # It wasn't a Java exception after all...
-         die $@ ;
-      }
-   }
-
-=for comment
-
-What's important to understand is that $@ actually contains a reference
-to the Throwable object that was thrown by Java. The getMessage() function
-is really a method of the java.lang.Exception class. So if Java is throwing

-=head1 CALLBACKS
-
-You can now (as of 0.31), call Perl functions from Java. To do this you 
-need to create an org.perl.inline.java.InlinePerlJavaCaller object. You 
-can then use the CallPerl method to call your Perl function. You pass the
-parameters using an array of Objects. The method will return the result in 
-an Object, which you must then cast as a String (if your Perl method 
-returns a Perl scalar), or anything else if your Perl function returns 
-an "Inline::Java" object. Here is a example of a typical use:

-=for comment
-
-The CallPerl method can throw 2 types of exceptions: InlineJavaException and
-InlineJavaPerlException (both of these belong to the org.perl.inline.java
-package). The former designates an internal C<Inline::Java> errorand the 
-latter indicates that the Perl callback threw an exception (die() or croak()).
-The value of $@ (this can be a scalar or any valid "Inline::Java" object) can
-be retreived using the GetObject method of the InlineJavaPerlException object
-(if you are certain that $@ was a Perl scalar, you can use the GetString 
-method).

-As of 0.44, it is now possible to use callbacks from differents Java threads.
-One of the big advantages of this is that you can now handle, for example,

-      $b->StopCallbackLoop() ;
-   }
-
-=for comment
-
-The StartCallbackLoop method can be called on any InlineJavaPerlCaller object
-and will block the current thread and allow the reception of callbacks through
-any InlineJavaPerlCaller that has been created by the same (current) thread.
-The only way to interrupt such a StartCallbackLoop method is to call the
-StopCallbackLoop method on any InlineJavaPerlCaller object that has been created
-by that same thread.
-
-Also, only threads that communicate with Perl through C<Inline::Java> are allowed
-to create InlineJavaPerlCaller objects and invoke their StartCallbackLoop /
-StopCallbackLoop methods.

-=head1 PerlNatives CALLBACKS (EXPERIMENTAL)
-
-Note: PerlNatives requires J2SDK version >= 1.4
-
-As of 0.45, it is now possible to define your callbacks as native Java methods
-that are automatically linked to Perl subroutines. You implement the Perl
-subroutine directly in the package in which C<Inline::Java> binds your class.
-Let's revisit the example from the previous section:

-
-=for comment
-
-Extending InlineJavaPerlNatives tells C<Inline::Java> that all native methods 
-declared in that class should be linked to Perl subroutines implemented in the 
-approriate package. You can then call these methods from Java just like regular 
-methods. You can even call them from Perl if they are public. However, here are 
-a few things to remember:
-
-  - You cannot declare 2 native methods with the same name in a class (even if
-    they have different signatures)
-  - Native methods can have arguments of any type, but they must return either
-    void or an Object (use wrappers like Integer and Double to return primitive
-    types)
-  - Even if you do not declare them, InlineJavaException and 
-    InlineJavaPerlException exceptions (as well as others) may be thrown from
-    within the native methods
-   Z<>

-
-=head1 STUDYING
-
-As of version 0.21, C<Inline::Java> can learn about other Java classes
-and use them just like the Java code you write inside your Perl script.
-In fact you are not even required to write Java code inside your Perl
-script anymore. Here's how to use the 'studying' function:
-
-=for comment
-
-   use Inline (
-      Java => 'STUDY',
-      STUDY => ['java.util.HashMap'],
-   ) ;
-
-   my $hm = new java::util::HashMap() ;
-   $hm->put("key", "value") ;
-   my $val = $hm->get("key") ;
-   print($val . "\n") ; # prints value
-
-=for comment
-
-If you do not wish to put any Java code inside you Perl script, you must
-use the string 'STUDY' as your code. This will skip the build section.
-
-You can also use the AUTOSTUDY option to tell C<Inline::Java> that you wish
-to study all classes that it comes across:
-
-=for comment
-
-   use Inline Java => <<'END', AUTOSTUDY => 1 ;
-      import java.util.* ;
-
-      class Pod_10 {
-         public Pod_10(){
-         }
-
-         public HashMap get_hm(){
-            HashMap hm = new HashMap() ;
-            return hm ;
-         }
-      }
-   END
-
-   my $obj = new Pod_10() ;
-   my $hm = $obj->get_hm() ;
-   $hm->put("key", "value") ;
-   my $val = $hm->get("key") ;
-   print($val . "\n") ; # prints value
-
-=for comment
-
-In this case C<Inline::Java> intercepts the return value of the get_hm()
-method, sees that it's of a type that it doesn't know about 
-(java.lang.HashMap), and immediately studies the class. After that call 
-the java::lang::HashMap class is available to use through Perl.
-
-In some cases you may not know which classes to study until runtime. In 
-these cases you can use the study_classes() function:
-
-=for comment
-
-   use Inline (
-      Java => 'STUDY',
-      STUDY => [],
-   ) ;
-   use Inline::Java qw(study_classes) ;
-
-   study_classes(['java.util.HashMap'], undef) ;
-   my $hm = new java::util::HashMap() ;
-   $hm->put("key", "value") ;
-   my $val = $hm->get("key") ;
-   print($val . "\n") ; # prints value
-
-=for comment
-
-The study_classes() function takes 2 arguments, a reference to an array of
-class names (like the STUDY configuration option) and the name of the 
-package in which to bind those classes. If the name of the package is 
-undefined, the classes will be bound to the current (caller) package.
-Note: You can only specify the names of packages in which you have 
-previously "used" C<Inline::Java>.

-
-
-=head1 JNI vs CLIENT/SERVER MODES
-
-Starting in version 0.20, it is possible to use the JNI (Java Native 
-Interface) extension. This enables C<Inline::Java> to load the Java virtual 
-machine as a shared object instead of running it as a stand-alone server. 
-This brings an improvement in performance.
-
-If you have built the JNI extension, you must enable it explicitely by doing
-one of the following:
-
-   - set the JNI configuration option to 1
-   - set the PERL_INLINE_JAVA_JNI environment variable to 1
-
-Note: C<Inline::Java> only creates one virtual machine instance. Therefore
-you can't use JNI for some sections and client/server for others. The first
-section determines the execution mode.
-
-See README.JNI for more information about the JNI extension.
-   Z<>
-
-
-=head1 SHARED_JVM
-
-Starting with version 0.30, the C<Inline::Java> JVM can now be shared between
-multiple processes. The first process to start creates the JVM but does not 
-shut it down on exit. All other processes can then connect as needed to the JVM. 
-If any of these other processes where created by forking the parent process, 
-the Inline::Java->reconnect_JVM() function must be called in the child to get 
-a fresh connection to the JVM. Ex:
-
-=for comment
-
-   use Inline (
-      Java => <<'END',
-         class Pod_11 {
-            public static int i = 0 ;
-            public Pod_11(){
-               i++ ;
-            }
-         }
-   END
-      SHARED_JVM => 1,
-   ) ;
-
-   my $nb = 5 ;
-   for (my $i = 0 ; $i < $nb ; $i++){
-      if (! fork()){
-         Inline::Java::reconnect_JVM() ;
-         my $f = new Pod_11() ;
-         exit ;
-      }
-   }
-   sleep(5) ;
-
-   my $f = new Pod_11() ;
-   print($f->{i} . "\n") ; # prints 6
-
-=for comment
-
-Once this code was run, each of the 6 processes will have created a different 
-instance of the 't' class. Data can be shared between the processes by using 
-static members in the Java code.
-
-Note: The Java System.out stream is closed in SHARED_JVM mode.

-=head1 USING Inline::Java IN A CGI
-
-If you want to use C<Inline::Java> in a CGI script, do the following:
-
-=for comment
-
-   use CGI ;
-   use Inline (
-      Java => <<'END',
-         class Pod_counter {
-            public static int cnt = 0 ;
-            public Pod_counter(){
-               cnt++ ;
-            }
-         }
-   END
-      SHARED_JVM => 1,
-      DIRECTORY => '/somewhere/your/web/server/can/write',
-   ) ;
-
-   my $c = new Pod_counter() ;
-   my $q = new CGI() ;
-   print 
-      $q->start_html() . 
-      "This page has been accessed " . $c->{cnt} . " times." .
-      $q->end_html() ;
-
-=for comment
-
-In this scenario, the first CGI to execute will start the JVM, but does
-not shut it down on exit. Subsequent CGI, since they have the SHARED_JVM
-option enabled, will try to connect to the already existing JVM before
-trying to start a new one. Therefore if the JVM happens to crash or is
-killed, the next CGI that runs will start a new one. The JVM will be
-killed when Apache is shut down.

-
-You shouldn't name any of your classes 'B', 'S', 'I', 'J', 'F', 'D',

 The C<org.perl.inline.java.InlineJavaPerlInterpreter> Java class allows
-you to call or evaluate Perl code from a Java program. It is implemented

@@ -51,69 +56,51 @@ Before using C<org.perl.inline.java.InlineJavaPerlInterpreter>, you must
 have installed C<Inline::Java> as well as the JNI extension. Additionally,
 the PerlInterpreter extension must also have been installed.
 
-B<>
-
-This section will explain the different ways to C<use> Inline::Java.
-For more details on C<Inline>, see 'perldoc Inline'.
-
-B<Basic Usage>
-
-The most basic form for using C<Inline::Java> is:
-
-   use Inline Java => 'Java source code' ;
-
-Of course, you can use Perl's "here document" style of quoting to make
-the code slightly easier to read:
-
-   use Inline Java => <<'END';
-
-      Java source code goes here.
-
-   END
-
-The source code can also be specified as a filename, a subroutine
-reference (sub routine should return source code), or an array
-reference (array contains lines of source code). This information
-is detailed in 'perldoc Inline'.
-
-In order for C<Inline::Java> to function properly, it needs to know
-where to find a Java 2 SDK on your machine. This is done using one
-of the following techniques:
-
-   - set the J2SDK configuration option to the correct directory
-   - set the PERL_INLINE_JAVA_J2SDK environment variable to the
-     correct directory
-
-If none of these are specified, C<Inline::Java> will use the Java
-2 SDK that was specified a install time (see below).
-
-
+B<Finding the jar>
+
+To be able to use the C<org.perl.inline.java.InlineJavaPerlInterpreter> 
+class, you must use the jar file provided by C<Inline::Java>. You can 
+easily locate this jar file using the following command:
+
+   % perl -MInline::Java=jar
+      
+You must then add this jar file to your CLASSPATH as you would any jar
+file.
+
+B<Basic Usage>
+
+C<org.perl.inline.java.InlineJavaPerlInterpreter> itself extends
+C<org.perl.inline.java.InlineJavaPerlCaller>. See L<Inline::Java::Callback>
+for information on the callback API.
+
+Besides that API, C<org.perl.inline.java.InlineJavaPerlInterpreter> provides
+only 2 other public methods:
+
+  public InlineJavaPerlInterpreter create() 
+     throws InlineJavaPerlException, InlineJavaException 
+    
+     Creates a new org.perl.inline.java.InlineJavaPerlInterpreter object.

+  public void destroy()
+  
+     Destroys the Perl interpreter.

-=head1 DESCRIPTION
-
-The C<Inline::Java> module allows you to put Java source code
-directly "inline" in a Perl script or module. A Java compiler
-is launched and the Java code is compiled. Then Perl asks the
-Java classes what public methods have been defined. These classes 
-and methods are available to the Perl program as if they had been 
-written in Perl.
-
-The process of interrogating the Java classes for public methods
-occurs the first time you run your Java code. The namespace is
-cached, and subsequent calls use the cached version.
-   Z<>
-
-
-=head1 USING THE Inline::Java MODULE
-
-C<Inline::Java> is driven by fundamentally the same idea as other
-C<Inline> language modules, like C<Inline::C> or C<Inline::CPP>. 
-Because Java is both compiled and interpreted, the method of getting 
-your code is different, but overall, using C<Inline::Java> is very similar
-to any other C<Inline> language module.
-
-This section will explain the different ways to C<use> Inline::Java.
-For more details on C<Inline>, see 'perldoc Inline'. 
-
-B<Basic Usage>
-
-The most basic form for using C<Inline::Java> is:
-
-   use Inline Java => 'Java source code' ;
-
-Of course, you can use Perl's "here document" style of quoting to make 
-the code slightly easier to read:
-
-   use Inline Java => <<'END';
-
-      Java source code goes here.
-
-   END
-
-The source code can also be specified as a filename, a subroutine
-reference (sub routine should return source code), or an array
-reference (array contains lines of source code). This information
-is detailed in 'perldoc Inline'.
-
-In order for C<Inline::Java> to function properly, it needs to know 
-where to find a Java 2 SDK on your machine. This is done using one 
-of the following techniques:
-
-   - set the J2SDK configuration option to the correct directory
-   - set the PERL_INLINE_JAVA_J2SDK environment variable to the 
-     correct directory
-
-If none of these are specified, C<Inline::Java> will use the Java
-2 SDK that was specified a install time (see below).
-
-
-=head1 DEFAULT JAVA 2 SDK
-
-When C<Inline::Java> was installed, the path to the Java 2 SDK that was 
-used was stored in a file called default_j2sdk.pl that resides with
-the C<Inline::Java> module. You can find this file by using the following
-command:
-
-    % perl -MInline::Java=j2sdk
-
-If you wish to permanently change the default Java 2 SDK that is used
-by C<Inline::Java>, edit this file and change the value found there.
-If you wish use a different Java 2 SDK temporarily, see the J2SDK 
-configuration option described below.
-
-
-=head1 CONFIGURATION OPTIONS
-
-There are a number of configuration options that dictate the 
-behavior of C<Inline::Java>:
-
-   J2SDK: 
-      Specifies the path to your Java 2 SDK. 
-	  Ex: J2SDK => '/my/java/2/sdk/path'
-      Note: This configuration option only has an effect on the first
-      'use Inline Java' call inside a Perl script, since all other calls 
-      make use of the same JVM.
-
-   PORT:
-      Specifies the starting port number for the server. If many
-      C<Inline::Java> blocks are declared, the port number is 
-      incremented each time.	
-      Default is 0 (next available port number).
-      Default for SHARED_JVM mode is 7890.
-      Ex: PORT => 4567
-      Note: This configuration option only has an effect on the first
-      'use Inline Java' call inside a Perl script, since all other calls
-      make use of the same JVM.
-
-   STARTUP_DELAY:
-      Specifies the maximum number of seconds that the Perl script
-      will try to connect to the Java server. In other this is the
-      delay that Perl gives to the Java server to start.
-      Default is 15 seconds.
-      Ex: STARTUP_DELAY => 20
-      Note: This configuration option only has an effect on the first
-      'use Inline Java' call inside a Perl script, since all other calls 
-      make use of the same JVM.
-
-   CLASSPATH:
-      Adds the specified CLASSPATH. This CLASSPATH will only be available
-      threw the use classloader. To set the CLASSPATH globally, use the 
-      CLASSPATH environment variable.
-      Ex: CLASSPATH => '/my/other/java/classses'
-
-   JNI:
-      Toggles the execution mode. The default is to use the client/server
-      mode. To use the JNI extension (you must have built it at install 
-      time though. See README and README.JNI for more information), set 
-      JNI to 1.
-      Ex: JNI => 1
-      Note: This configuration option only has an effect on the first
-      'use Inline Java' call inside a Perl script, since all other calls 
-      make use of the same JVM.
-
-   EXTRA_JAVA_ARGS:
-   EXTRA_JAVAC_ARGS:
-      Specify extra command line parameters to be passed to, respectively,  
-      the JVM and the Java compiler. Use with caution as some options may 
-      alter normal C<Inline::Java> behavior.
-      Ex: EXTRA_JAVA_ARGS => '-Xmx96m'
-      Note: EXTRA_JAVA_ARGS only has an effect on the first
-      'use Inline Java' call inside a Perl script, since all other calls 
-      make use of the same JVM.
-
-   EMBEDDED_JNI:
-      Same as JNI, except C<Inline::Java> expects the JVM to already be
-      loaded and to have loaded the Perl interpreter that is running the
-      script. This is an advanced feature that should only be need in
-      very specific circumstances.
-      Ex: EMBEDDED_JNI => 1
-      Note: The EMBEDDED_JNI option sets the JNI option.
-      Note: This configuration option only has an effect on the first
-      'use Inline Java' call inside a Perl script, since all other calls 
-      make use of the same JVM.
-
-   SHARED_JVM:
-      This mode enables mutiple processes to share the same JVM. It was 
-      created mainly in order to be able to use C<Inline::Java> under 
-      mod_perl. 
-      Ex: SHARED_JVM => 1
-      Note: This configuration option only has an effect on the first
-      'use Inline Java' call inside a Perl script, since all other calls 
-      make use of the same JVM.
-
-   PRIVATE:
-      In SHARED_JVM mode, makes every connection to the JVM use a different
-      classloader so that each connection is isolated from the others.
-      Ex: PRIVATE => 1
-      Note: This configuration option only has an effect on the first
-      'use Inline Java' call inside a Perl script, since all other calls
-      make use of the same JVM.
-
-   DEBUG:
-      Enables debugging info. Debugging now uses levels (1 through 5)
-      that (loosely) follow these definitions:
-        1 = Major program steps
-        2 = Object creation/destruction
-        3 = Method/member accesses + packet dumps
-        4 = Everything else
-        5 = Data structure dumps
-      Ex: DEBUG => 2
-
-   DEBUGGER:
-      Starts jdb, (the Java debugger) instead of the regular Java JVM.
-      This option will also cause the Java code to be compiled using the
-      '-g' switch for extra debugging information. EXTRA_JAVA_ARGS can
-      be used use to pass extra options to the debugger.
-      Ex: DEBUGGER => 1
-
-   WARN_METHOD_SELECT:
-      Throws a warning when C<Inline::Java> has to 'choose' between 
-      different method signatures. The warning states the possible 
-      choices and the signature chosen.
-      Ex: WARN_METHOD_SELECT => 1
-
-   STUDY:
-      Takes an array of Java classes that you wish to have 
-      C<Inline::Java> learn about so that you can use them inside Perl.
-      Ex: STUDY => ['java.lang.HashMap', 'my.class']
-
-   AUTOSTUDY:
-      Makes C<Inline::Java> automatically study unknown classes it
-      encounters them.
-      Ex: AUTOSTUDY => 1

-=head1 ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
-
-Every configuration option listed above, with the exception of STUDY,
-can be specified using an environment variable named using the 
-following convention:
-
-   PERL_INLINE_JAVA_<option name>
-
-For example, your can specified the JNI option usng the 
-PERL_INLINE_JAVA_JNI environment variable. 
-
-Note that environment variables take precedence over options specified
-in the script itself.
-
-Under Win32, you can also use set the PERL_INLINE_JAVA_COMMAND_COM 
-environment variable to a true value to indicate that you are using 
-the command.com shell. However, C<Inline::Java> should normally be 
-able to determine this on its own.
-
-
-=head1 CLASSES AND OBJECTS
-
-Because Java is object oriented, any interface between Perl and Java
-needs to support Java classes adequately.

-C<Inline::Java> created a new namespace called C<main::Pod_1> and 
-created the following functions:
-
-   sub main::Pod_::new { ... }
-   sub main::Pod_::Pod_1 { ... }
-   sub main::Pod_::get_data { ... }
-   sub main::Pod_::get_sdata { ... }
-   sub main::Pod_::set_data { ... }
-   sub main::Pod_::DESTROY { ... }
-
-Note that only the public methods are exported to Perl. 
-
-Inner classes are also supported, you simply need to supply a reference
-to an outer class object as the first parameter of the constructor:

-In the previous example we have seen how to call a method. You can also
-call static methods in the following manner:

-You can pass any kind of Perl scalar or any Java object to a method. It
-will be automatically converted to the correct type:

-=head1 TYPE CASTING
-
-Sometimes when a class as many signatures for the same method, 
-C<Inline::Java> will have to select one of the signatures based on 
-the arguments that are passed:
-
-=for comment
-
-   use Inline Java => <<'END' ;
-      class Pod_7 {
-         public Pod_7(){
-         }
-
-         public String f(int i){
-            return "int" ;
-         }
-
-         public String f(char c){
-            return "char" ;
-         }
-      }
-   END
-
-   my $obj = new Pod_7() ;
-   print($obj->f('5') . "\n") ; # prints int
-
-=for comment
-
-In this case, C<Inline::Java> will call f(int i), because '5' is an integer.
-But '5' is a valid char as well. So to force the call of f(char c), do the 
-following:
-
-   use Inline::Java qw(cast) ;
-   $obj->f(cast('char', '5')) ;
-   # or
-   $obj->f(Inline::Java::cast('char', '5')) ;
-
-The cast function forces the selection of the matching signature. Note that
-the cast must match the argument type exactly. Casting to a class that 
-extends the argument type will not work.
-
-Another case where type casting is need is when one wants to pass an array
-as a java.lang.Object:
-
-   use Inline Java => <<'END';
-      class Pod_8 {
-         public Object o ;
-         int a[] = {1, 2, 3} ;
-
-         public Pod_8() {
-         }
-      }
-   END
-
-   my $obj = new Pod_8() ;
-   $obj->{o} = [1, 2, 3] ;	# No!
-
-The reason why this will not work is simple. When C<Inline::Java> sees an
-array, it checks the Java type you are trying to match it against to validate
-the construction of your Perl list. But in this case, it can't validate
-the array because you're assigning it to an Object. You must use the 3 
-parameter version of the cast function to do this:
-
-   $obj->{o} = Inline::Java::cast(
-     "java.lang.Object",
-     [1, 2, 3],
-     "[Ljava.lang.String;") ;
-
-This tells C<Inline::Java> to validate your Perl list as a String [], and 
-then cast it as an Object.
-
-Here is how to construct the array type representations:
-
-  [<type>  -> 1 dimensional <type> array
-  [[<type> -> 2 dimensional <type> array
-  ...
-
-  where <type> is one of:
-    B byte     S short     I int     J long  
-    F float    D double    C char    Z boolean
-
-    L<class>; array of <class> objects
-
-This is described in more detail in most Java books that talk about
-reflection.
-
-But you only need to do this if you have a Perl list. If you already have a 
-Java array reference obtained from elsewhere, you don't even need to cast:
-
-   $obj->{o} = $obj->{a} ;
-
-
-=head1 EXCEPTIONS
-
-You can now (as of 0.31) catch exceptions as objects when they are thrown 
-from Java. To do this you use the regular Perl exception tools: eval and 
-$@. A helper function named 'caught' is provided to help determine the 
-type of the exception. Here is a example of a typical use:
-
-=for comment
-
-   use Inline Java => <<'END' ;
-      import java.util.* ;
-
-      class Pod_9 {
-         public Pod_9(boolean t) throws Exception {
-            if (t){
-               throw new Exception("ouch!") ;
-            }
-         }
-      }
-   END
-
-   use Inline::Java qw(caught) ;
-
-   eval {
-	   my $obj = new Pod_9(1) ;
-   } ;
-   if ($@){
-      if (caught("java.lang.Exception")){
-         my $msg = $@->getMessage() ;
-         print($msg . "\n") ; # prints ouch!
-      }
-      else{
-         # It wasn't a Java exception after all...
-         die $@ ;
-      }
-   }
-
-=for comment
-
-What's important to understand is that $@ actually contains a reference
-to the Throwable object that was thrown by Java. The getMessage() function
-is really a method of the java.lang.Exception class. So if Java is throwing
-a custom exception you have in your code, you will have access to that
-exception object's public methods just like any other Java object in 
-C<Inline::Java>. It is also probably a good idea to undef $@ once you have 
-treated a Java exception, or else the object still has a reference until
-$@ is reset by the next eval.

-=head1 CALLBACKS
-
-You can now (as of 0.31), call Perl functions from Java. To do this you 
-need to create an org.perl.inline.java.InlinePerlJavaCaller object. You 
-can then use the CallPerl method to call your Perl function. You pass the
-parameters using an array of Objects. The method will return the result in 
-an Object, which you must then cast as a String (if your Perl method 
-returns a Perl scalar), or anything else if your Perl function returns 
-an "Inline::Java" object. Here is a example of a typical use:

-The CallPerl method can throw 2 types of exceptions: InlineJavaException and
-InlineJavaPerlException (both of these belong to the org.perl.inline.java
-package). The former designates an internal C<Inline::Java> errorand the 
-latter indicates that the Perl callback threw an exception (die() or croak()).
-The value of $@ (this can be a scalar or any valid "Inline::Java" object) can

+=head1 BUGS AND DEFICIENCIES
+
+C<Inline::Java::PerlNatives> has a few limits that one must be aware of:
 
-As of version 0.21, C<Inline::Java> can learn about other Java classes
-and use them just like the Java code you write inside your Perl script.
-In fact you are not even required to write Java code inside your Perl
-script anymore. Here's how to use the 'studying' function:
-
-=for comment
-
-   use Inline (
-      Java => 'STUDY',
-      STUDY => ['java.util.HashMap'],
-   ) ;

-   my $hm = new java::util::HashMap() ;
-   $hm->put("key", "value") ;
-   my $val = $hm->get("key") ;
-   print($val . "\n") ; # prints value
-
-=for comment
-
-If you do not wish to put any Java code inside you Perl script, you must
-use the string 'STUDY' as your code. This will skip the build section.
-
-You can also use the AUTOSTUDY option to tell C<Inline::Java> that you wish
-to study all classes that it comes across:
-
-=for comment
-
-   use Inline Java => <<'END', AUTOSTUDY => 1 ;
-      import java.util.* ;
-
-      class Pod_10 {
-         public Pod_10(){
-         }
-
-         public HashMap get_hm(){
-            HashMap hm = new HashMap() ;
-            return hm ;
-         }
-      }
-   END
-
-   my $obj = new Pod_10() ;

-   $hm->put("key", "value") ;
-   my $val = $hm->get("key") ;
-   print($val . "\n") ; # prints value
-
-=for comment
-
-In this case C<Inline::Java> intercepts the return value of the get_hm()
-method, sees that it's of a type that it doesn't know about 
-(java.lang.HashMap), and immediately studies the class. After that call 
-the java::lang::HashMap class is available to use through Perl.
-
-In some cases you may not know which classes to study until runtime. In 
-these cases you can use the study_classes() function:

-   use Inline (
-      Java => 'STUDY',

-   my $val = $hm->get("key") ;
-   print($val . "\n") ; # prints value

-=for comment
-
-The study_classes() function takes 2 arguments, a reference to an array of
-class names (like the STUDY configuration option) and the name of the 
-package in which to bind those classes. If the name of the package is 
-undefined, the classes will be bound to the current (caller) package.
-Note: You can only specify the names of packages in which you have 
-previously "used" C<Inline::Java>.

-=head1 JNI vs CLIENT/SERVER MODES
-
-Starting in version 0.20, it is possible to use the JNI (Java Native 
-Interface) extension. This enables C<Inline::Java> to load the Java virtual 
-machine as a shared object instead of running it as a stand-alone server. 
-This brings an improvement in performance.
-
-If you have built the JNI extension, you must enable it explicitely by doing
-one of the following:
-
-   - set the JNI configuration option to 1
-   - set the PERL_INLINE_JAVA_JNI environment variable to 1
-
-Note: C<Inline::Java> only creates one virtual machine instance. Therefore
-you can't use JNI for some sections and client/server for others. The first
-section determines the execution mode.
-
-See README.JNI for more information about the JNI extension.

-=head1 SHARED_JVM
-
-Starting with version 0.30, the C<Inline::Java> JVM can now be shared between
-multiple processes. The first process to start creates the JVM but does not 
-shut it down on exit. All other processes can then connect as needed to the JVM. 
-If any of these other processes where created by forking the parent process, 
-the Inline::Java->reconnect_JVM() function must be called in the child to get 
-a fresh connection to the JVM. Ex:

-            public Pod_11(){
-               i++ ;
-            }
-         }
-   END
-      SHARED_JVM => 1,
-   ) ;
-
-   my $nb = 5 ;
-   for (my $i = 0 ; $i < $nb ; $i++){
-      if (! fork()){
-         Inline::Java::reconnect_JVM() ;
-         my $f = new Pod_11() ;
-         exit ;
-      }
-   }
-   sleep(5) ;
-
-   my $f = new Pod_11() ;
-   print($f->{i} . "\n") ; # prints 6

-Once this code was run, each of the 6 processes will have created a different 
-instance of the 't' class. Data can be shared between the processes by using 
-static members in the Java code.
-
-Note: The Java System.out stream is closed in SHARED_JVM mode.

-=head1 USING Inline::Java IN A CGI
-
-If you want to use C<Inline::Java> in a CGI script, do the following:
-
-=for comment
-
-   use CGI ;
-   use Inline (
-      Java => <<'END',
-         class Pod_counter {
-            public static int cnt = 0 ;
-            public Pod_counter(){
-               cnt++ ;
-            }
-         }
-   END
-      SHARED_JVM => 1,
-      DIRECTORY => '/somewhere/your/web/server/can/write',
-   ) ;
-
-   my $c = new Pod_counter() ;
-   my $q = new CGI() ;
-   print 
-      $q->start_html() . 
-      "This page has been accessed " . $c->{cnt} . " times." .
-      $q->end_html() ;
-
-=for comment
-
-In this scenario, the first CGI to execute will start the JVM, but does
-not shut it down on exit. Subsequent CGI, since they have the SHARED_JVM
-option enabled, will try to connect to the already existing JVM before
-trying to start a new one. Therefore if the JVM happens to crash or is
-killed, the next CGI that runs will start a new one. The JVM will be
-killed when Apache is shut down.

-               cnt++ ;
-            }
-         }
-   END
-      SHARED_JVM => 1,
-      DIRECTORY => '/somewhere/your/web/server/can/write',
-   ) ;
-
-   my $c = new Pod_counter() ;

-      my $q = new CGI ;
-      print
-         $q->start_html() .
-         "This page has been accessed " . $c->{cnt} . " times." .
-         $q->end_html() ;
+You cannot declare 2 native methods with the same name in a class (even if they 
+have different signatures).
 
-      return Apache::Constants::OK() ;
-   }
+=item 2
+
+Native methods can have arguments of any type, but they must return either void 
+or an Object (use wrappers like Integer and Double to return primitive types).
+
+=item 3
+
+Even if you do not declare them, InlineJavaException and InlineJavaPerlException 
+exceptions (as well as others) may be thrown from within the native methods

-
-When reporting a bug, please do the following:
-
- - Put "use Inline REPORTBUG;" at the top of your code, or
-   use the command line option "perl -MInline=REPORTBUG ...".
- - Run your code.
- - Follow the printed instructions.
-
-Here are some things to watch out for:
-
-=over 4
-
-=item 1
-
-You shouldn't name any of your classes 'B', 'S', 'I', 'J', 'F', 'D',
-'C', 'Z' or 'L'. These classes seem to be used internally by Java to
-represent the primitive types.
-
-=item 2
-
-If you upgrade C<Inline::Java> from a previous version, be sure to delete
-your _Inline directory so that C<Inline::Java>'s own Java classes get 
-rebuilt to match the Perl code.
