//!
//! The engine is the central object. It is where the application 
//! \ref doc_register_api_topic "registers the application interface"
//! that the scripts should be able to use, and it is where the application can 
//! \ref doc_compile_script "request modules to build scripts" and 
//! \ref doc_call_script_func "contexts to execute them".
//!
//! The engine instance is created with a call to \ref asCreateScriptEngine. 
//!
//! It is allowed to have multiple instances of script engines, but there is rarely a need for it.
//! Even if the application needs to expose different interfaces to different types of scripts
//! this can usually be accomplished through the use of \ref doc_adv_dynamic_config "configuration groups" 
//! and \ref doc_adv_access_mask "access profiles".

//! \brief The interface to the virtual machine
//!
//! The script context provides the interface for a single script execution. The object stores the call
//! stack where the local variables used by the execution are kept, however it doesn't keep copies of 
//! global variables as these are stored in the \ref asIScriptModule, and only referenced by the context.
//!
//! The value stored in a global variable is shared between all contexts, as they all refer to the same 
//! memory. This means that the global variables outlive the execution of a script, and will keep their
//! values between executions.
//!
//! It is seldom necessary to maintain more than one script context at a time, with the only exceptions
//! being when a script calls an application function that in turn calls another script before returning, 
//! and if multiple scripts are running in parallel. 
//!
//! Try to avoid associating a unique context with each object that may need to call scripts. Instead 
//! keep a shared pool of contexts that can be requested by the objects on a need-to basis.
