Perl Extensions
Today I made my first foray into building perl extension modules. My god is it crazy. I really dislike pseudo languages like XS. It's just a giant pain in the ass. I can't believe that Perl, which makes so many things easier makes this integration so damned hard. (Yes, I know about Inline, and how cool it can be. But I need a simple wrapper around a C library function.)
But I've been growing tired of Perl anyways. It's nice, but I feel the need to stretch myself, and I want to do more Java and C++.

You should check out SWIG. It's great for wrapping stuff between languages.
