title: Lua or Python binding with C++
body: <p>I have used Lua.NET on .NET platform and I  could call the .NET class/object from Lua and I could call the Lua from .NET Lua API interface. I did the same with the IronPython. I knew the how the .NET binding works.</p>
  
  <p>Now I have a C++ project and I want to use the dynamic capabilities. I want to call C++ object which may not be possible from Lua so I may need to call some C API which makes call to C++. Meantime I want to call the Lua from C++.</p>
  
  <p>We have configuration data which is best described in table like format in Lua or List &amp; Dict like in Python. We need to enumerate these data structures defined in Lua/Python in C++. </p>
  
  <p>When considering Lua to Python in C++ for two way calling, is Python have upper hand with Boost Python library? I don't have experience in Python/C++ binding. I don't have equal experience of using Python in C++ and calling Python from C++.</p>
