Changes for version 4.0

  • client can exist to allow the server to authorize remote clients. Hopefully this will open the door to further security enhancements.
  • Event port usage can now be turned off by specifying an event_port of '-1' Callback objects can be created & used to allow Java to call Perl See the Java2Perl.java classfile and the java2perl directory under 'examples' & Java.pm's perldoc Thanks to Achim Settelmeier for the Auth & Callback Stuff! Good Job! Added support for getting the last Exception object & a convenience method for dumping its stack trace into a perl array via the 'get_exception' and 'get_stack_trace' methods. See the perldoc. Before all you could get was just the String-ified message ('getMessage()') of the Exception.
