Hi,

I'm trying to create a JAVA GUI over a perl program (until now we used a TK GUI, but it looks quite obsolete and have some nasty bugs).

The requirements are:
  1. Perl program have to be run both in GUI mode (JAVA GUI) and in CLI mode (perl CLI).
  2. JAVA GUI have to be able to communicate with the perl program that actually does all the job (the GUI is there just to permit the user to choose/modify some options)
The options are:
  1. Use Java.pm and launch from there the JAVA GUI (from the preliminary tests seems to run slow, the GUI somtimes even freeze).
  2. Launch a jar that contains the JAVA GUI, and call perl subroutines from there.

Which one of these options did you think it's better? Have you ever use one of them and how.

Thanks.
