While looking at
http://www.rsyslog.com/doc-rainerscript.html I wondered if using a complete scripting language [1] for configuraton
is not making it overly complex and error prone. I specifically means
function definition etc. here.
But if you really need that kind of flexibility and scripting
capabilites, have you considered to use existing languages, like lua
[2], which were specifically designed to be embedded into
applications?
Cheers,
Michael
