I'm of the opinion that languages like Lua/MiniD are great ways to
achieve these goals as they are small efficient languages and were made
specifically for embedding. I'm considering the idea of using Lua
scripts as configuration files, but haven't yet put into practice to
judge if it is beneficial.
I agree there are some handy tools, but they exist because of the
shortcomings of said languages, not because it is the way it should be.
// define here
class A {
...
}
// and export somewhere
export(A);
export(A.method);
...
export(that);
export(whatever);
...
You see how stupid is this? How ugly it can get? For actually zero gain?
I do not believe it is common to add scripting to avoid the language you
are writing code in.
Absolutely!
