Hi all,
|
|
|
|
I have a situation where I would like to add a scripting language to the
|
|
client of a client-server application. The server will, as part of the
|
|
communication between client and server, provide the client with scripts to
|
|
run. I would like it to be secure so I do not end in a situation where I
|
|
expose the client machine to virae, Trojan horses or similar nasty things.
|
|
In other words, I would like the scripts to be run in their own little
|
|
"sandbox" environment. I have the embedding almost down, but what I have is
|
|
a fully functional language within the client. Is there any way, without
|
|
modifying the core Python code, that I can implement a secure scripting
|
|
language using Python?
|
|
|
|
-- Per.
