Compiling code at runtime

Putting aside the technical issues there, the security implications are massive. If you let someone write C/C++ code and then compile and execute that code (or worse, let some remote person do it in a multiplayer game) - you are asking for trouble. As other’s have said, I would use something like Lua (or make a visual scripting language made out of blocks so you can control exactly what can be compiled) - but just text -> compiler is HUGELY risky.

SQL Sanitization is bad enough - can you imagine being given the task of sanitizing ALL of c++!?
