Framework: Spring

Spring is a massive framework. People use it for many things. Depending on what you use it for, there are many different Perl modules you want to try out.

Start with Moose. If you want an IoC container, add in Bread::Board. For database access, use DBI and possibly DBIx::Class. For web-based MVC development, add in Catalyst. For testing, Test::More and its friends.

ORM Framework: Hibernate

DBIx::Class.

Application server: Jboss/Glassfish

For web-based applications, use any web server supported by Plack, such as Starman. For other applications, most Perl programmers tend to get by without this sort of thing at all. Ubic may be of interest I suppose.

Logger: Log4J

Log::Log4perl.

Build Tool: Ant/Maven

ExtUtils::MakeMaker or Module::Build.

Mail related things: Java Mail API

Either Mark Overmeer's Mail::Box framework, or RJBS's more loosely coupled mail modules (Email::Simple, Email::Sender, etc). If your needs are very, very basic, also consider Mail::Sendmail.

XML: JDOM/dom4j

XML::LibXML for general XML processing. If you need to marshall/unmarshall objects to XML, then XML::Rabbit marries XML::LibXML with Moose.

Reporting: Jasper Reports

???

Authorization & Authentication: JAAS

???

Naming and Directory services: JNDI

Regarding many buzzwords you listed, please explain what they are supposed to mean in Perl's context ...

( I don't wanna google again° ... :)

°) This is not a java board after all.

The are problems that can be coded in Perl that can not be easily addressed with Java. Write code in the language best suited to the problem domain, be it Perl, Java, or FORTRAN 74.

The answer to your question is 'mu'.

You appear to assume that there is a one-to-one mapping between Java libraries and perl libraries. That isn't the case. You need to tell us what you are doing with those Java libraries before we can tell you what the perl equivalents are *for what you are doing*, and even then there may not *be* equivalents because we have tools that work completely differently to achieve the same result.

Also you need to explain what those Java things are. You appear to assume that we know what you are talking about. I for one have no idea what "Spring" is, aside from being a season, a type of onion, and something that goes "sproing".
