A simple single-file javascript interpreter written in C++

This project aims to be an extremely simple (~2000 lines currently) JavaScript interpreter, meant for inclusion in applications that require a simple, familiar script language that can be included with no dependencies other than normal C++ libraries. It currently consists of two source files -  one containing the interpreter, another containing built-in functions such as String.substring.

I make absolutely no guarantees that this is compliant to JavaScript/EcmaScript standard. In fact I am sure it isn't. However I welcome suggestions for changes that will bring it closer to compliancy without overly complicating the code, or useful test cases to add to the test suite.

Currently TinyJS supports:

  • Variables, Arrays, Structures
  • JSON parsing and output
  • Functions
  • Calling C/C++ code from JavaScript
  • Objects with Inheritance (not fully implemented)

TinyJS is released under an LGPL licence.

It is available on Google Code at the following address:
