For those that have glanced through the Lua C VM implementation, would the use of C++ significantly simplify the implementation?
Lua is intended to be an embedded language. So the “implementation” of the VM comes in two distinct pieces: the creation of the VM source code, and the integration of that code in the artifact to be deployed. I suspect your question is intended to focus on the first part. Too bad. The second part, the integration, happens many times over, and is generally much easier in C than in C++.
