Choosing embedded scripting language for C++

Question

I want to choose an embedded scripting language that i will use on C++. It should connect a database such as Oracle. My host application is a server application. That will pass

Answer 1

TCL would be another option for an easy to embed scripting language.

personally I'd go with the scripting language you and/or whoever will be using the scripting language is most familiar with already, especially if end users will be able to run custom scripts, you will need to know what, if any, languages they are familiar with in their business domain e.g. CAD/CAM people may know TCL, gaming people may know Lua etc.
