I think you want Vim's 'ctags' interface.
See :help tags-and-searches
Exuberant ctags is an external application which is used to generate
tags of your entire code base, and works with many common languages.
I'm not sure if it works for all of the languages you request, out of
the box, but it supports a great many common ones.
