The closest standard is Python's "ctypes".
Now ... some of the guides I have read say that CTYPES only works with C, but I've found that (within limits) LE calling convention works well with other languages, not just C.

In a previous life, I was able to call C from Python (the point being "to call /native/") without any special rigging other than CTYPES (included w Python).

So here's a curious question.  Are IBM Open Enterprise SDK for Python and
the Python from Rocket Software basically the same, or no?
