QuestionCross platform development with object inheritance from compiled DLLs. Pin

Intro: Hey. I am a VB6 and VB.NET programmer with little experience outside these environments.

Question:

I am about to start developing a developer tool which is delivered as a DLL. The developer must then inherit from objects in my DLL. This is easy to achieve using .NET but then my target developers must also be using .NET. If I enable COM in my DLL then I enlarge my target market a bit, however I would like to include C++ (unmanaged) developers and perhaps even LINUX and MAC developers in my target market. Is there a language/environment combination in which I might be able to manage this?

I have looked at the Qt platform but I don't know how I would enable object inheritance from a Qt DLL. I also can't find out how (unmanaged) C++ applications can consume COM (or .NET) DLLs.

So, to summarise:

1. I am trying to choose a suitable language/environment combination.
2. I want developers from many languages/environments to be able to use object inheritance from my DLL.
3. C++ and/or Qt may be part of the answer but I am not sure.
4. What happened to CORBA? Would that have been the answer?

Any COM or object library experts out there, please respond.

Cheers and thanks for any help.
