Hi Is there a scripting language that supports calling functions inside dlls?

IIRC, python and lua have C bindings. Maybe perl too.

I can't really comment on the other languages, but I have a fair amount of experience working with C++ and Python. They fit together perfectly, Python was designed as a glue language, so it's perfect for putting together different bits of code.

Take a look at SWIG (www.swig.org) - it makes generating an extension to python so easy it almost becomes no fun!

There is also a good tutorial as part of the standard Python help files.

Any scripting language that''s extensible can be coded to support DLLs. That includes Tcl/Tk, Python, PERL, java-script, and, of course, VBScript.

what about Lua?

Of course you can do it with lua, you just need to register all the functions you need...
