Embedding HashLink - HaxeFoundation/hashlink GitHub Wiki

HashLink can be easily embedded into any application to provide very fast scripting capabilities.

It consists of separate parts:

• libhl is the HashLink runtime, that can be dynamically linked
• HL boot, with its bytecode loader code.c, module initializer module.c, jit support jit.c, and (optional) debugger debugger.c

All of these are initialized and controlled by main.c which does the following:

• parse command-line arguments
• load the .hl bytecode
• initialize HL runtime
• allocate and initialize a module (jit the code)
• setup exception catching
• call module entry point (starts it)
• catch and print exceptions (if any)

You can see the full source for it here:

You can read the C API Documentation for more details about how to integrate with your application.
