I've got several software platforms in mind that are mainly 
characterised by the programming language that will be used to implement 
the data processing for the source files. The currently discussed 
implementation languages do provide similar features like inheritance 
(object-orientation) and exception handling. The supported features can 
be mapped to different syntaxes. It is unclear if such a mapping from a 
high-level class specification to the target language can be 
automatically performed by a free tool in all use cases.
- SWIG shows an example for the creation of interfaces from C++ to other 
targets.
- IDL specifies another mapping for CORBA services.

Is the structure of the class libraries that are provided by Synopsis 
for Python and C++ similar?

Oops! Thanks for your hint.
I hope that I can improve my wording as you suggested.
