For calling interpreter language procedure from a compiler language procedure, a compiler language procedure is generated in accordance with a function name of the interpreter function, a name of the foreign language procedure for calling the interpreter function, a return data type name of the interpreter function and an argument data type name and storing the compiler language procedure into a main memory. An external name registration table is then generated, containing data for addressing the foreign language procedure. A dynamic linking means is operable in response to the generation of the external name registration table for reading an object file from an auxiliary memory and the contents of the external name registration table and establishing reference relationships between the foreign language procedure and other procedures in accordance with the external name registration table and storing the foreign language procedure and the other procedures into the main memory so that the foreign language procedure can be used to call the interpreter function by way of the compiler language procedure. An interpreter language procedure for operating the foreign language procedure is generated and stored into the main memory.
