embedded c

[Schuster, Joel (N-Compaq)]

Just interested if anyone has tried creating a version of gcc and the linker that would be shared objects that would allow in-memory compilation and linking at runtime? I'm thinking of this in terms of using C/C++ as a embedded scripting language within an application where the 'script' would have access to all the resources that the main application would.

Any ideas along this line would be useful. Thanks.
