Suggestions (off top of my head) :-
* Flag in toLua to generate conditional flags
around argument checking code so I can use it conditionally. ie. if I am happy
the code is all working I could turn arg checking off for extra performance in
release version.
static int toluaI_ming_mingError00(lua_State*
tolua_S) {
#if CHECK_ARGS if
( !tolua_istype(tolua_S,1,LUA_TSTRING,0)
|| !tolua_isnoobj(tolua_S,2) ) goto
tolua_lerror; else
#endif { char* tolua_var_1 =
((char*) tolua_getstring(tolua_S,1,0)); {
mingError(tolua_var_1); } } return
0; #if CHECK_ARGS tolua_lerror: tolua_error(tolua_S,"#ferror
in function 'mingError'."); return 0;
#endif }
This could possibly be: tolua -argsflag
CHECK_ARGS
so you can change the name of the flag
generated (eg. to _DEBUG) easily.
* Static functions in tolua generated
wrapper to generate error messages:
tolua_error(tolua_S,"#ferror in
function 'mingError'.");
could be
makeferror(char *fn)
{
char
e[256];
sprintf("#ferror in
function '%s'",fn);
tolua_error(state,e);
}
if you get my drift. Just a slight
memory optimisation when you have a couple of hundred
functions.
* Can you put the included header eg.
$#include "myheader.h" at the very top of the file so my precompiled headers
work properly! eg. in Borland.
#include "tolua.h"
/* Exported function */ int tolua_min_open (lua_State*
tolua_S); void tolua_min_close (lua_State* tolua_S);
#include "minpch.h" #pragma hdrstop #include
"gui/gui.h"
ie. #include "minpch.h" etc. should go before the exported
fns.
Cheers,
Nick.

I plan to release an official release soon, but to truly gain
effieciency we need features that will be available only with Lua
4.1.
> It works??? Where did you get it? > My version is tied
to Lua 3.x
For those who missed my original
message:
***********************
there is a alpha version
available at ftp.tecgraf.puc-rio.br/pub/celes/tolua/tolua-4.0a.tar.gz
I
am still working on its performance, and will probably change the code (not
the interface) in the next days. Also, the docs are not
up-to-date.
The main changes are: - Lua 4.0 compatible (tolua is now
reentrant) - new support for 'bool' type (mapped to Lua as 1 or
nil) - new support for extracting .pkg instruction from real header
file - fixed bugs reported in this list. - no support for overloading
relational operators: <=, >=, > (it supports < only) - the
option -a is no longer support (we need the lua state to
initalize tolua)
feedbacks, suggestions and bug reports are very
wellcome.
