is a perl script good to do this?

[Jaideep Kshirsagar]

Hi,

I am new to PERL scripting.
I have a requirement where in I have to

1. query the database
2. based on result set, create objects of a JAVA class
3. cache these objects in Hashtable and
4. return the Hashtable.

Can a perl script do this for me?

Rgds,
Jai

You are talking two different languages here - Java and Perl. You can't create a Java object using perl, you can sure call a java program using perl or maybe maybe maybe something more with JNI.

All of the steps are relatively easy to do in Java. Why would you want to introduce Perl into it?

There are ways of mixing Perl and Java if you're set on doing that, e.g. JPL .
