This adds scripting functionality to standard C++ programs, such as safety, simplicity and garbage collection. <br>

This means that you can easily integrate this scripting language with existing C++ projects, and write performance-critical parts in C++ very easily. You also have full access to existing C and C++ librarie</p><p style="-qt-paragraph-type:empty; margin-top:12px; margin-bottom:12px; margin-left:0px; margin-right:0px; -qt-block-indent:0; text-indent:0px; -qt-user-state:0;"><br></p>On Wednesday 15 April 2009 23:22:03 Trevor Pearson wrote:<br>
