I was too lazy to remove them. I will clean up the CVS when I have some
time.

Exactly. All you need to access java libraries from PHP is a Java web
application containing JavaBridge.jar and php-servlet.jar deployed on some
server on the intranet (or even the internet). -- You can even start a local
Java daemon from your php script by setting JAVA_HOSTS to some integer and
JAVA_SERVLET to false. But such a standalone daemon is difficult to log
unless you set up log4j.

The Java container running the JavaBridge.war application. -- In a typical
n-tier setup PHP is the front-end, handling client requests.

If I have some time I will fix fopen so that it can fetch and cache scripts
from a local URL by default.

In the meantime please adjust JAVA_HOSTS and JAVA_SERVLET, if necessary
(they default to localhost:8080 and /JavaBridge/JavaBridge.phpjavabridge)
and include Java.inc from the file system.

but then why does "make install" and/or "install.sh" from CVS sources
still put 'JavaBridge.jar, JavaBridge.war, java.so, php-script.jar,
RunJavaBridge and script-api.jar' into my PHP installations lib dir
(/usr/lib/php5/20060613/)?

Reading your comment and understanding more and more about the usage of
pjb(php java bridge) it seems like all of these are not needed in the
php installation where I want to use java.

waow, I didn't spot this "autoconfiguration feature" yet. Seems like a
very cool and nice idea! This however requires "allow-url-fopen". Would
this be required anyway, or just here to include "Java.inc"?

I have seen the "make install / install.sh" put Java.inc into my pear
directory. So for me Java.inc is on the include path already. :->

At least in the source distribution/CVS there are quite a few files with
peaces of documentation of all different scenarios and considering the
evolving history of pjb it is just not that easy to understand what one
has to do with the recent version to set it up properly. I am fully
aware that using CVS/sources one has to expect trouble, so I am not
complaining! ;)

Thx and Greets,
Peter
