C# rocks. D rocks. I used ruby in a project and i am very happy. /gem install sqlite3/-ruby ... This 3 languages are completed from the begining and with different uses.
For me the universe must be in C and autocreate bindings to other languages is direct if the C APi is well designed. http://live.gnome.org/Vala http://live.gnome.org/GObjectIntrospection If you design a masterful API in C, you can access to all languages like JAVA, c#, ruby, python, PERL,D, C++, ... This is the perfect sample of this API: http://library.gnome.org/devel/glib/2.18/ This is the perfect sample of a full Object oriented API in C with Gobject: http://library.gnome.org/devel/gtk/stable/ I doubt SQLite was more apropiate to use in TCL. I see the C API of SQlite very clean and easy to hack in other languages. In my opinion TCL.like perl, is death and sucks in my opinion. Ofusctated life... PD: I was PERL user in the past and i change it for ruby.
