I have a simple Perl script that just prints out the fact that it has been invoked/executed. This Perl script file (Test.pl) exists in a previously existing Java application package (Utils) that also contains Java class files. I am attempting to execute the Perl Script from a Java class in a different package (Display) within the same Java project. I have tried using the Java Process class Runtime.getRuntime().exec() method and Java ProcessBuilder class to execute this Perl script to no success. Was wondering if there are any specific Eclipse configuration steps required to make this work? I have added the full pathname of the Perl script file to the manifest file classpath line of the Display package. When I export/generate a Jar file using the class files in the Display and Utils package and the Display Package manifest file no build errors are generated,

This isn't a question for this forum as it's simply one for Java.
