what is meant by language interoperability and language
integration?
Answer Posted / mary
Prior to the introduction of .Net, the code written in one
programming language is considered to be usable only in the
programs written with the same programming languages. For
example, an algorithm implemented in Perl programming
language can not be reused in the programs written in the
C++. At Windows platform, Microsoft introduced the
standards for COM (Component Object Model) which allows
components written in one programming language to be used
in other programming language. In Java, JNI (Java Native
Interface) is presented to use-up the code written in non-
Java languages into Java programs. But both the standards
(COM and JNI) are too complex and have their own
limitations. They also don’t allow the language
integration, which means that you can use the components
written in other programming languages but you can’t extend
the functionality of the components.
In Microsoft.Net, the code written in any programming
language is compiled to the same Intermediate Language
(Microsoft Intermediate Language - MSIL or Common
Intermediate Language – CIL) and to same component standard
(assembly). Hence, it is possible for developers to employ
the language interoperability by using and extending the
solution implemented by other developers which might be
using different programming language provided developers at
both end are using.Net compliant programming languages.
