Re: c++ scripting extension questions

[Gambit <gambit@...>]

I have a small little C++ wrapper that uses templates to do 99% of the work 
for you located at http://www.rm-f.net/~gambit/lua/  It's just a technical 
exercise, if you're interested I could upload the full versions which 
includes GC work and support for multiple simultaneous interpreters.  This 
is what I'm using for my "game" project.  Though I haven't done any speed 
analysis, etc., of the mechanism, and it might be terribly slow, it should 
at least give you an idea as to one possible route to take.

Best of all, it doesn't require any crazy parsing of your code, using 
instead some crazy template logic to do all that for you :D
