I'm not aware of such a free framework, but I would expect to have to
assemble several libraries in order to do this. In such a case, I would
certainly prefer an architecture based on an Object Broker which let
access to several components.

I already know people doing this using CORBA.

UNO and the URE will only provide you the object broker and I'm not sure
you can get a framework performing all what you need. Such a framework
will generally have to be composed by yourself as it's huge.

I already used UNO as an object broker.

I hope to show a start of the C++ support at the OOoCon2006 in september
