Hi Dave,

True, all the hotspot should be moved to the structural language.

The paper has described the situation clearly, "the two language view of the
world".

Apart from accessing to data structure and encapsulated C/C++ code at a
higher level , would there be any more possibilities?

Are there be any "two language" applications which have shown other benefits,
apart from a higher level manipulation, a shorter development cycle, or a
wide range of libraries?


Thanks

Ben
