Hello, hmm, dunno about the multi languages thing - for a long time people havebeen coding convienient bits in languages to capture the suitability of thelanguage for the application. Examples:- GUI development in VB, win32 API calls in VC++ GUI developmenty in Delphi, back-end stuff in javaMy app is:- GUI and logic in java, dynamic scripting with Jython (although could useNetRexx, Javascript and will be working on VBScript). This can also take inCOM objects via a bridge (although that is a pain in the arse!). The fast-growing ability to use a range of languages means that you canopen up areas in a particular language for the power they apply, e.g. Jythonis very easy to use for clear, OO simple code, VBScript is used by a largesection of the world - if you want to include an OSA into scripts for aproduct - you'll get more interest if you can incorporate VBScripts (I don'tlike it either but it is a reality!), JAVA is very good for static typingand round-trip enigneering from UML (I would always prefer to codeenterprise solutions in JAVA). Finally look at xemacs, a wonderful example of an application which canswitch between different languages which is context sensitive. That's my fourpenneth, BTW a quick question attached onto the end ofthis:- Is there a cross-platform serial port driver available in a module inJython (difficult one I know).Cheers,Neil"Costas Menico" <costas at meezon.com> wrote in messagenews:3ad259bc.4612388 at News.CIS.DFN.DE...> I think ActiveState's Komodo tool is very poorly designed.
