Hi Joel,
interfacing with other languages is a forte with Python. To access a given
API from Python, you can write simple Python wrappers around C++ or Java
classes and functions that can then be called or instantiated from within
Python. There are also automatic interface compilers that can do this task
for you, for instance,
http://www.swig.org/exec.html
If your programs are deeply involved with the more intricate layers of Java,
then you might also consider using Jython (http://www.jython.org/), an
implementation of Python over the Java Virtual Machine (instead of the
Python one).
Of course the usual COM interfaces are also available in Python.
Best regards,
Michael Suesserott
