So, a JavaScript engine written in C could be perfect, no? Try SpiderMonkey (developped by Mozilla) at "http://www.mozilla.org/js/spidermonkey/".

Have a look at Lua ([url]www.lua.org)[/url]. Lua is a simple, clean and small language designed especially to be embedded in C and extended by C and also has a nice C++ boost-style binding named luabind ([url]http://luabind.sourceforge.net/)[/url]. -- Mikhail Gusarov ICQ UIN: 111575219 JID: [email]dottedmag (AT) jabber (DOT) fanstvo.com[/email] [ See http://www.gotw.ca/resources/clcm.htm for info about ] [ comp.lang.c++.moderated.

Any suggestions? Try Tcl. This may help you a lot: http://cpptcl.sourceforge.net/ Tcl is very mature and allows you to create many independent interpreters in your application, completely isolated from each other (other languages suggested here may have problems with this, at least that was the case with Python the last time I checked). This is important, especially when embedding in a bigger C++ application - once you start liking the whole idea you will for sure try to plug the interpreter in different parts of the program (possibly running in separate threads). In such an environment you certainly don't want the interpreters to be related to each other in any way. Check this carefully before commiting yourself to any language, it may save you some grief later. -- Maciej Sobczak : http://www.msobczak.com/ Programming : http://www.msobczak.com/prog/ [ See http://www.gotw.ca/resources/clcm.htm for info about ] [ comp.lang.c++.moderated.
