Abstract
Technical solutions are described for facilitating a first computer program product to communicate with a second computer program product. The first computer program product invokes an application programming interface (API) function from an API of the second computer program product, where the first computer program product and the second computer program product use distinct programming languages. The solutions described herein initiate a record corresponding to the API function and invoke an interpreter that calls the API function in the second programming language. Upon receiving, from the interpreter, an indication that the API function has completed execution, result of the execution are obtained from the record and returned to the first computer program product.
