ChaiScript is one of the first (and perhaps only) embedded scripting language designed from the ground up to directly target C++.
Being a native C++ application, ChaiScript comes with some advantages over existing embedded scripting languages:
· ChaiScript uses a header-only approach, which makes it easy to integrate with existing projects.
· ChaiScript maintains type safety between your C++ application and user scripts.
· ChaiScript supports a variety of C++ techniques including callbacks, overloaded functions, class methods, and stl containers.
