That's simple, use hooks on the mode you're using. Since I use
flyspell-prog-mode for many languages I have a list and I loop on it to
add the right hook.

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
  (defcustom to-spell-langs
    '(emacs-lisp-mode-hook python-mode-hook c-mode-common-hook nesc-mode-hook 
java-mode-hook jde-mode-hook haskell-mode-hook)
    "Set of programming modes for which I want to enable spelling in comments 
and strings"
    :type 'list)
  
  (dolist (lang-hook to-spell-langs)
    (add-hook  lang-hook 'flyspell-prog-mode))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Again use hooks and set local variables with your values.

I don't have an example of this but it should be something like
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(add-hook 'java-mode-hook (lambda ()
  (make-local-variable ...)
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
