Abstract

Using languages such as Ruby for middleware integration projects is straightforward when developers can create pure dynamic language applications that access preexisting services, eventhough such services (often considered "legacy") are typically implemented in "traditional"middleware languages such as Java, C++, or C. Are dynamic languages like Ruby still useful in situations that require directly coupling the dynamic code to the legacy code? Here, Vinoski explores what it takes to cleanly integrate Ruby into an existing C++ middleware system.
