Re: Advice Mixing PHP and Lua?

[Fernando P. García <fernando@...>]

Lua is the first ever language I've learned because I really wanted it, not because of study or work. So I understand what you say :)

I have started a project for those who want to migrate from PHP to Lua, it is called Nutria:

Hi Everyone

I am new to Lua and still reading Roberto's book. I am absolutely loving
everything that I have learned so far. It's amazing how many things are
the way I was hoping they would be in the other languages that I learned
but were not.

I am going to use Lua with C++ and it looks like a perfect match already
but I also want to do some web based stuff. PHP just has such a large
set of libraries of which one I have already become Dependant on. Lua
seems like a better language but PHP has such a head start with the web.
What would be the best way to mesh PHP code and Lua? I know there is a
PECL extension for embedding the Lua interpretor, has anyone else used
this?Is there a better way?

Thanks in advance-Patrick
