Abstract
Utilization of various agile development practices brings demand of short development cycle with stress on early deployment and rapid delivery. Such practices require techniques permitting rapid prototyping of systems, corresponding tests and simulations.
One of the well-adopted rapid prototyping techniques is polyglot programming combining multiple, mainly scripting, languages during development of systems. This permits the use of a specialized language for dedicated system concerns and also allows for a continuous change and re-deployment of implementation.
Despite the advantages, rapid prototyping with help of polyglot programming is still not well supported in the domain of component-based systems, which makes it difficult to quickly prototype and test these systems. The paper describes a general technique for transparent and extensible combining of multiple languages for purpose of rapid prototyping during development of component-based systems with help of advanced component frameworks.
