Method and apparatus for remote inter-language method calling

摘要

Embodiments of the present invention are directed towards a method and apparatus for remote inter-language method calling. In one embodiment of the present invention, remote inter-language method calls are translated into an intermediary protocol, termed "*Connect". The call is then translated from *Connect to the protocol of the language in which the method is written. *Connect insures that the method is called properly and that any return values are returned properly. Thus, any change in the protocol of the language in which the method is written necessitates only modification of the code used to translate between *Connect and the method's language.
