The squirrel standard libraries consist in a set of modules implemented in C++.
|
|
While are not essential for the language, they provide a set of useful services that are
|
|
commonly used by a wide range of applications(file I/O, regular expressions, etc...),
|
|
plus they offer a foundation for developing additional libraries.
|
|
|
|
All libraries are implemented through the squirrel API and the ANSI C runtime library.
|
|
The modules are organized in the following way:
|
|
|
|
* I/O : input and output
|
|
* blob : binary buffers manipilation
|
|
* math : basic mathematical routines
|
|
* system : system access function
|
|
* string : string formatting and manipulation
|
|
* aux : auxiliary functions
|
|
|
|
The libraries can be registered independently,except for the IO library that depends from the bloblib.
