RE: [Javaserver-java] javaserver with binary data

[Matt G. <Mat...@tw...>]

Mark,
	My Java objects are zipped together in a zip file. I use perl to
iterate through the entries. For each entry I have an $entry->contents
that I want to pass to the Java side. My original workaround was to
write the contents out to /tmp. That doesn't work when I'm not on the
same machine as the Java server.=20
	I could uuencode the contents and pas them over, but then I
would have to write more Java code than I want to. All I really want to
do is:

my $bis =3D $java->create_object("java.io.ByteArrayInputStream",
$entry->contents);
my $str =3D $java->create_object("java.io.ObjectInputStream",
$bis)->readObject->toString();
