@lefticus. I don't use that kind of binding with squirrel. Instead I use squirrel scripts to access classes and functions written in C/C++ using sqPlus. Chaiscript is not bad at all. Just one question, how you compile a Chaiscript file to a binary and load it to your app? I compile a Squirrel .nut ...

ChaiScript

I personally chose AngelScript because it is so stupidly simple to bind to your program and I didn't want to spend all my time writing code to bind a language like Lua.
