+# Contributing to ChaiScript
+
+Thank you for contributing!
+
+# Pull Requests
+
+Please follow the existing style in the code you are patching.
+
+ - two space indent
+ - no tabs EVER
+ - match the existing indentation level
+ 
+All ChaiScript commits are run through a large set of builds and analysis on all supported platforms. Those results are posted on the 
+[build dashboard](http://chaiscript.com/ChaiScript-BuildResults/index.html). No PR will be accepted until all tests pass.
+
+The build system has full integration with GitHub and you will be notified automatically if all tests have passed.
+
+# Issues
+
+Please do not post a "chaiscript is too slow", "chaiscript compiles too slowly", or "chaiscript needs more documentation" issue
+without first reading the following notes.
+
+## ChaiScript is Too Slow
+
+We are actively working on constently improving the runtime performance of ChaiScript. With the performance being
+[monitored with each commit](http://chaiscript.com/ChaiScript-BuildResults/performance.html).
+
+If you feel you *must* post an issue about performance, please post a complete example that illustrates the exact case you
+feel should be better optimized.
+
+Any issue request regarding performance without a complete example of the issue experienced will be closed.
+
+## ChaiScript Compiles Too Slowly
+
+This is also something we are actively working on. If you need highly optimized build times, please see [this discussion
+on the discourse site](http://discourse.chaiscript.com/t/slow-build-times/94).
+
+## ChaiScript Needs More Documentation
+
+If you have a question that is not addressed in the [cheatsheet](https://github.com/ChaiScript/ChaiScript/blob/develop/cheatsheet.md) 
+please open an issue so we can get the Cheatsheet updated.

+# Introduction
+
+This document outlines the principles that drive the development of ChaiScript. ChaiScript does not intent to be the perfect tool for *every* situation, but it does intend to be a good general purpose tool for *most* situations.
+
+# Goals
+
+1. Trivially easy to integrate with C++ projects
+2. 0 external depenencies
+3. "Perfect" integration with C++
+   * Direct mapping between ChaiScript objects and C++ objects
+   * Direct mapping between ChaiScript functions and C++ functions
+   * Direct mapping between ChaiScript exceptions and C++ exceptions
+3. Never surprise the C++ developer
+   * Object lifetimes managed by the stack
+   * Familiar syntax to C++ developers
+4. Perform "well enough" to not get in the way
+
+
+# Alternatives
+
+## Sol2
+
+If you are looking for the fastest performing scripting language and don't mind Lua, you might want to consider [sol2](https://github.com/ThePhD/sol2).
+
+## SWIG
+
+If you are looking for the most flexible solution to be able to support multiple target languages, consider [SWIG](http://swig.org)

+# ChaiScript Versioning
+
+ChaiScript tries to follow the [Semantic Versioning](http://semver.org/) scheme. This basically means:
+
+  * Major Version Number: API changes / breaking changes
+  * Minor Version Number: New Features
+  * Patch Version Number: Minor changes / enhancements
+  
+
+
+# Initializing ChaiScript
+
+```
+chaiscript::ChaiScript chai; // loads stdlib from loadable module on file system
+chaiscript::ChaiScript chai(chaiscript::Std_Lib::library()); // compiles in stdlib
+```
+
+# Adding Things To The Engine
+
+## Adding a Function / Method / Member
+
+### General
+
+```
+chai.add(chaiscript::fun(&function_name), "function_name");
+chai.add(chaiscript::fun(&Class::method_name), "method_name");
+chai.add(chaiscript::fun(&Class::member_name), "member_name");
+```
+
+### Bound Member Functions
+
+```
+chai.add(chaiscript::fun(&Class::method_name, Class_instance_ptr), "method_name");
+chai.add(chaiscript::fun(&Class::member_name, Class_instance_ptr), "member_name");
+```
+
+### With Overloads 
+
+#### Preferred
+
+```
+chai.add(chaiscript::fun<ReturnType (ParamType1, ParamType2)>(&function_with_overloads), "function_name");
+```
+
+#### Alternative
+
+```
+chai.add(chaiscript::fun(std::static_cast<ReturnType (*)(ParamType1, ParamType2)>(&function_with_overloads)), "function_name");
+```
+This overload technique is also used when exposing base member using derived type
+
+```
+struct Base
+{
+  int data;
+};
+
+struct Derived : public Base
+{};
+
+chai.add(chaiscript::fun(static_cast<int(Derived::*)>(&Derived::data)), "data");
+```
+
+### Lambda
+
+```
+chai.add(
+  chaiscript::fun<std::string (bool)>(
+    [](bool type) { 
+      if (type) { return "x"; } 
+      else { return "y"; } 
+    }), "function_name");
+```
+
+### Constructors
+
+```
+chai.add(chaiscript::constructor<MyType ()>(), "MyType");
+chai.add(chaiscript::constructor<MyType (const MyType &)>(), "MyType");
+```
+
+## Adding Types
+
+It's not strictly necessary to add types, but it helps with many things. Cloning, better errors, etc.
+
+```
+chai.add(chaiscript::user_type<MyClass>(), "MyClass");
+```
+
+## Adding Type Conversions
+
+User defined type conversions are possible, defined in either script or in C++.
+
+
+
+### ChaiScript Defined Conversions
+
+Function objects (including lambdas) can be used to add type conversions
+from inside of ChaiScript:
+
+```
+add_type_conversion(type("string"), type("Type_Info"), fun(s) { return type(s); });
+```
+
+### C++ Defined Conversions
+
+Invoking a C++ type conversion possible with `static_cast`
+
+```
+chai.add(chaiscript::type_conversion<T, bool>());
+```
+
+Calling a user defined type conversion that takes a lambda
+
+```
+chai.add(chaiscript::type_conversion<TestBaseType, Type2>([](const TestBaseType &t_bt) { /* return converted thing */ }));
+```
+
+### Class Hierarchies
+
+If you want objects to be convertable between base and derived classes, you must tell ChaiScritp about the relationship.
+
+```
+chai.add(chaiscript::base_class<Base, Derived>());
+```
+
+If you have multiple classes in your inheritance graph, you will probably want to tell ChaiScript about all relationships.
+
+```
+chai.add(chaiscript::base_class<Base, Derived>());
+chai.add(chaiscript::base_class<Derived, MoreDerived>());
+chai.add(chaiscript::base_class<Base, MoreDerived>());
+```
+
+### Helpers
+
+A helper function exists for strongly typed and ChaiScript `Vector` function conversion definition:
+
+```
+chai.add(chaiscript::vector_conversion<std::vector<int>>());
+```
+
+A helper function also exists for strongly typed and ChaiScript `Map` function conversion definition:
+
+```
+chai.add(chaiscript::map_conversion<std::map<std::string, int>>());
+```
+
+
+
+This allows you to pass a ChaiScript function to a function requiring `std::vector<int>`
+
+## Adding Objects
+
+```
+chai.add(chaiscript::var(somevar), "somevar"); // copied in

+```
+
+# Using STL
+ChaiScript recognize many types from STL, but you have to add specific instantiation yourself.
+
+```
+typedef std::vector<std::pair<int, std::string>> data_list;
+data_list my_list{ make_pair(0, "Hello"), make_pair(1, "World") };
+chai.add(chaiscript::bootstrap::standard_library::vector_type<data_list>("DataList"));
+chai.add(chaiscript::bootstrap::standard_library::pair_type<data_list::value_type>("DataElement"));
+chai.add(chaiscript::var(&my_list), "data_list");
+chai.eval(R"_(
+    for(var i=0; i<data_list.size(); ++i)
+    {
+      print(to_string(data_list[i].first) + " " + data_list[i].second)
+    }
+  )_");
+```
+
+# Executing Script
+
+## General
+
+```
+chai.eval("print(\"Hello World\")");
+chai.eval(R"(print("Hello World"))");
+```
+
+## Unboxing Return Values
+
+Returns values are of the type `Boxed_Value` which is meant to be opaque to the programmer. Use one of the unboxing methods to access the internal data.
+
+### Prefered
+
+```
+chai.eval<double>("5.3 + 2.1"); // returns 7.4 as a C++ double
+```
+
+### Alternative
+
+```
+auto v = chai.eval("5.3 + 2.1");
+chai.boxed_cast<double>(v); // extracts double value from boxed_value and applies known conversions
+chaiscript::boxed_cast<double>(v); // free function version, does not know about conversions
+```
+
+### Converting Between Algebraic Types
+
+```
+chaiscript::Boxed_Number(chai.eval("5.3 + 2.1")).get_as<int>(); // works with any number type
+// which is equivalent to, but much more automatic than:
+static_cast<int>(chai.eval<double>("5.3+2.1")); // this version only works if we know that it's a double
+```
+
+### Conversion Caveats
+
+Conversion to `std::shared_ptr<T> &` is supported for function calls, but if you attempt to keep a reference to a `shared_ptr<>` you might invoke undefined behavior
+
+```cpp
+// ok this is supported, you can register it with chaiscript engine
+void nullify_shared_ptr(std::shared_ptr<int> &t) {
+  t = nullptr
+}
+```
+
+```cpp
+int main()
+{
+  // do some stuff and create a chaiscript instance
+  std::shared_ptr<int> &ptr = chai.eval<std::shared_ptr<int> &>(somevalue);
+  // DO NOT do this. Taking a non-const reference to a shared_ptr is not 
+  // supported and causes undefined behavior in the chaiscript engine
+}
+```
+
+
+## Sharing Values
+
+```
+double &d = chai.eval("var i = 5.2; i"); // d is now a reference to i in the script
+std::shared_ptr<double> d = chai.eval("var i = 5.2; i"); // same result but reference counted
+
+d = 3;
+chai.eval("print(i)"); // prints 3
+```
+
+## Catching Eval Errors
+
+```
+try {
+  chai.eval("2.3 + \"String\"");
+} catch (const chaiscript::exception::eval_error &e) {
+  std::cout << "Error\n" << e.pretty_print() << '\n';
+}
+```
+
+## Catching Errors Thrown From Script
+
+```
+try {
+  chai.eval("throw(runtime_error(\"error\"))", chaiscript::exception_specification<int, double, float, const std::string &, const std::exception &>());
+} catch (const double e) {
+} catch (int) {
+} catch (float) {
+} catch (const std::string &) {
+} catch (const std::exception &e) {
+  // This is the one what will be called in the specific throw() above
+}
+```
+
+## Sharing Functions
+
+
+```
+auto p = chai.eval<std::function<std::string (double)>>("to_string"); 
+p(5); // calls chaiscript's 'to_string' function, returning std::string("5")
+```
+
+Note: backtick treats operators as normal functions
+
+```
+auto p = chai.eval<std::function<int (int, int)>>(`+`); 
+p(5, 6); // calls chaiscript's '+' function, returning 11
+```
+
+```
+auto p = chai.eval<std::function<std::string (int, double)>>("fun(x,y) { to_string(x) + to_string(y); }");
+p(3,4.2); // evaluates the lambda function, returning the string "34.2" to C++
+```
+
+# Language Reference
+
+## Variables
+
+```
+var i; // uninitialized variable, can take any value on first assignment;
+auto j; // equiv to var
+
+var k = 5; // initialized to 5 (integer)
+var l := k; // reference to k
+auto &m = k; // reference to k
+
+global g = 5; // creates a global variable. If global already exists, it is not re-added
+global g = 2; // global 'g' now equals 2
+
+global g2;
+if (g2.is_var_undef()) { g2 = 4; } // only initialize g2 once, if global decl hit more than once
+
+GLOBAL g3; // all upper case version also accepted
+```
+
+## Looping
+
+```
+// c-style for loops
+for (var i = 0; i < 100; ++i) { print(i); }
+```
+
+```
+// while
+while (some_condition()) { /* do something */ }
+```
+
+```
+// ranged for
+for (x : [1,2,3]) { print(i); }
+```
+
+Each of the loop styles can be broken using the `break` statement. For example:
+
+```
+while (some_condition()) {
+  /* do something */
+  if (another_condition()) { break; }
+}
+```
+
+## Conditionals
+
+```
+if (expression) { }
+```
+
+```
+// C++17-style init-if blocks
+// Value of 'statement' is scoped for entire `if` block
+if (statement; expression) { }
+```
+
+## Built in Types
+
+```
+var v = [1,2,3u,4ll,"16", `+`]; // creates vector of heterogenous values
+var m = ["a":1, "b":2]; // map of string:value pairs
+```
+
+Floating point values default to `double` type and integers default to `int` type. All C++ suffixes
+such as `f`, `ll`, `u` as well as scientific notation are supported
+
+```
+1.0 // double
+1.0f // float
+1.0l // long double
+1 // int
+1u // unsigned int
+1ul // unsigned long
+1ull // unsigned long long
+```
+
+Literals are automatically sized, just as in C++. For example: `10000000000` is > 32bits and the appropriate type is used to hold it
+on your platform.
+
+
+## Functions
+
+Note that any type of ChaiScript function can be passed freely to C++ and automatically
+converted into an `std::function` object.
+
+### General 
+
+```
+def myfun(x, y) { x + y; } // last statement in body is the return value
+def myfun(x, y) { return x + y; } // equiv 
+```
+
+### Optionally Typed
+
+```
+def myfun(x, int y) { x + y; } // requires y to be an int
+```
+
+### With Guards
+
+```
+def myfun(x, int y) : y > 5 { x - y; } // only called if y > 5
+```
+
+### Methods
+
+Methods and functions are mostly equivalent
+
+```
+def string::add(int y) { this + to_string(y); }
+def add(string s, int y) { s + to_string(y); } //equiv functionality
+
+// calling new function/method
+"a".add(1); // returns a1
+add("a", 1); // returns a1, either calling syntax works with either def above
+```
+
+### Lambdas
+
+```
+var l = fun(x) { x * 15; }
+l(2) // returns 30
+
+var a = 13
+var m = fun[a](x) { x * a; } 
+m(3); // a was captured (by reference), returns 39
+
+var n = bind(fun(x,y) { x * y; }, _, 10);
+n(2); // returns 20 
+```
+
+
+
+## ChaiScript Defined Types
+
+Define a type called "MyType" with one member value "a" and a getter
+
+### Preferred
+
+```
+class MyType {
+  var value;
+  def MyType() { this.value = "a"; }
+  def get_value() { "Value Is: " + this.value; }
+};
+```
+
+### Alternative 
+
+```
+attr MyType::value;
+def MyType::MyType() { this.value = "a"; }
+def MyType::get_value() { "Value Is: " + this.value; }
+```
+
+### Using
+
+```
+var m = MyType(); // calls constructor
+print(m.get_value()); // prints "Value Is: a"
+print(get_value(m)); // prints "Value Is: a"
+```
+
+## Dynamic Objects
+
+All ChaiScript defined types and generic Dynamic_Object support dynamic parameters
+
+```
+var o = Dynamic_Object();
+o.f = fun(x) { print(x); }
+o.f(3); // prints "3"
+```
+
+Implicit 'this' is allowed:
+
+```
+var o = Dynamic_Object();
+o.x = 3;
+o.f = fun(y) { print(this.x + y); }
+o.f(10); // prints 13
+```
+
+### Option Explicit
+
+If you want to disable dynamic parameter definitions, you can `set_explicit`.
+
+```
+class My_Class {
+  def My_Class() {
+    this.set_explicit(true);
+    this.x = 2; // this would fail with explicit set to true
+  }
+};
+```
+
+## method_missing
+
+A function of the signature `method_missing(object, name, param1, param2, param3)` will be called if an appropriate
+method cannot be found
+
+```
+def method_missing(int i, string name, Vector v) {
+  print("method_missing(${i}, ${name}), ${v.size()} params");
+}
+
+5.bob(1,2,3); // prints "method_missing(5, bob, 3 params)"
+```
+
+`method_missing` signature can be either 2 parameters or 3 parameters. If the signature contains two parameters
+it is treated as a property. If the property contains a function then additional parameters are passed to
+the contained function.
+
+If both a 2 parameter and a 3 parameter signature match, the 3 parameter function always wins.
+
+## Context
+
+ * `__LINE__` Current file line number
+ * `__FILE__` Full path of current file
+ * `__CLASS__` Name of current class
+ * `__FUNC__` Mame of current function
+
+
+# Built In Functions
+
+## Disabling Built-Ins
+
+When constructing a ChaiScript object, a vector of parameters can be passed in to disable or enable various built-in methods.
+
+Current options:
+
+```
+enum class Options
+{
+  Load_Modules,
+  No_Load_Modules,
+  External_Scripts,
+  No_External_Scripts
+};
+```
+
+
+## Evaluation
+
+```
+eval("4 + 5") // dynamically eval script string and returns value of last statement
+eval_file("filename") // evals file and returns value of last statement
+use("filename") // evals file exactly once and returns value of last statement
+                // if the file had already been 'used' nothing happens and undefined is returned
+```
+
+Both `use` and `eval_file` search the 'usepaths' passed to the ChaiScript constructor
+
+## JSON
+
+ * `from_json` converts a JSON string into its strongly typed (map, vector, int, double, string) representations
+ * `to_json` converts a ChaiScript object (either a `Object` or one of map, vector, int, double, string) tree into its JSON string representation

 Requirements
 ============
 
-ChaiScript requires a C++11 compiler to build with support for variadic 
-templates.  It has been tested with gcc 4.7 and clang 3.1 (with libcxx). MacOS 
-10.8 (Mountain Lion) is also known to support the C++11 build with Apple's

+=======
+Current Version: 6.0.0
+
+### Changes since 5.8.6
+
+*6.0.0 is a massive rework compared to 5.x. It now requires a C++14 enabled compiler*
+
+#### Compiler Requirements
+
+* MSVC 2015 or greater
+* g++ 4.9 or greater
+* clang 3.6 or greater
+
+#### Breaking Changes
+
+* Instantiating a ChaiScript object now, by default, builds the stdlib in
+  * This was done to address the most common support issues of loading stdlib dynamically at runtime
+  * If you want the old behavior, use include/chaiscript/chaiscript_basic.hpp
+* Headers have been reorganized to fully separate stdlib/parser/engine from each other (some faster builds)
+* Bootstrap functions no longer return a reference to the module added to (compile time savings)
+* It's now no longer possible modify AST_Nodes (compile time, runtime efficiency)
+* Function annotations no longer exist (simplifies code, reduces compile time, compile size)
+
+#### New Features Added
+
+* Modular optimization system; this can be accessed via the ChaiScript_Basic interface
+* Execution tracing capability; also accessed via ChaiScript_Basic interface
+* range-based for loops `for( id : container ) { }` (much better performance than other loop types)
+* If-init expressions (ala C++17)
+* Support for passing r-value references to functions
+* Support for containing unique_ptr
+* Add helpers for exposing enum classes to ChaiScript
+* Allow typed ChaiScript defined functions to perform conversions on call #303
+
+#### Improvements
+
+* Compile time improvements
+* Compile size improvements
+* Significant runtime improvements (see "Modular optimization system")
+* Significant parser improvements, both with parse-time and parser initialization time (Thanks @niXman)
+* Fix type conversion to bool in conditionals
+
+#### Improvements Still Need To Be Made

+* Multiply defined symbols fixes #232 @RaptorFactor
+* Add add_class<Enum> helper #233  @vrennert
+* Cheatsheet fixes #235 @mlamby
+* Fix parsing of strings inside of in-string eval statements
+* Allow lower-case global keyword
+* Enable thread-local on MSVC (should be significant performance boost)
+
+
+### Changes since 5.7.0

-Notes:
-
- * There was overlap during the 5.x and 4.x development cycle, so some of the notes appear twice as the new features were developed for 4.x (which required boost) then ported to 5.x (which requires C++11).
- * This is the last release of 5.x, all future development will be on the final merged 6.x line.
