Can I use C++ or Python in Eclipse plugin?

Question

I need an Eclipse plugin which will use some API written in python or C++.

Is it possible to write an eclipse plugin using one of these languages, or I should use something like JNI to call the API?

Eclipse plugins must be written in Java.

To use C/C++ code you would have to use JNI.

This question covers calling python from Java.
