I have a C++ desktop application (written in wxWidgets) and I want to add support for some scripting language.
Scripting would mostly be used for run-time conversions of strings, numbers and dates by user supplied JavaScript code.
I'd like to use JavaScript because it is widely used and everyone is familiar with the syntax.
Googling around, it seems I have two options:
- SpiderMonkey from Mozilla
- JavaScriptCore from WebKit
Has anyone tried those? Which one would be easier to set up? Do you know of some other implementation that is better for my needs?
BTW, I target Windows and Linux platforms.
