Re^3: Maximising Language integration: Holy Grail or Dystopia?

The point was a little more basic than that: You're talking in quite broad strokes with abstract terms, and I don't completely understand the question. You're not going to find a silver bullet anyway, so if you want more pragmatic suggestions, we'll need to know more about the problem space (how big is the software project you are looking at, what technologies does it involve, etc.). The request for sample code was not asking for an example of the solution, it meant show us the problem you are trying to solve.

The question put more succinctly is: I am considering creating a Perl class (with some parents it needs) to service conceptual objects that get implemented as objects in different languages in different sources. The intention is to support multiple frameworks and even multiple meta-frameworks such as bootstrap. Or is this pointless and I should just accept the multi-language style and not try to integrate.

The point was already made that you'll need to write tests for your code, make sure it's maintainable, and that the maintenence does in fact happen as long as the code is in use. My experience has been that test & maintenance usually create more work than it would have been to use an existing language / tool / framework. But if you think your case is manageable, then feel free to write your tool :-)
