This probably belongs in the scripting forum, but depending what you're really trying to do, it may not be worth moving the thread because there's no way to use anything but LSL for in-world scripting. On the other hand, if you have a library of functions in some other language, you can set up an external server implementing that library, and then your LSL script can pass data back and forth with that server over http. There are even LSL functions to help with JSON serialization, etc.

Oh, umm, for completeness: it's possible to do some minimal viewer-side javascript in Media On A Prim scripts. That's surely not relevant here, though.

u mentioned about the library function in some other language,.I am not getting it clearly .can u please explain it properply.please.  I mean what is the exact procedure so that LSL can pass data through that server.?

Here's a recent thread on the Scripting Tips forum that shows an LSL stub calling a little sample java server program. (The initial post doesn't work as-is, of course, so you'll need to read through to the stackoverflow post to get something working.) There's also a PHP example in the wiki's documentation for llHTTPRequest.

The problem with changing languages is the viewer is only an interface and the language interpreter lives in the servers.

There are some development systems that use other languages but, they have to translate their source into LSL... which becomes limiting.
