for the ffi people:
Has any though gone into cplusplus? If so, how would it interface? Would stubs on the c++ side be generated or would it use the code directly.
Interfacing in a clean and comprehensive way to OO languages is hard. For a discussion of some of the problems wrt to typing, see http://research.microsoft.com/Users/simonpj/Papers/oo-haskell/ AFAIK, nobody is currently actively working on a FFI extension for C++ or Java. Cheers, Manuel
