I'm messing with coroutines and sandboxing and I need a way to yield from a debug hook. This would let my code check for interrupts on every instruction and stuff... Does anyone have a patch for doing this?


You don't need a patch to do this, at least not in Lua 5.2

Uhh really? Why didn't it work then? (tested w/ lua 5.2.3)

You have to call your Lua script with lua_resume. Using lua_call or lua_pcall will give you an error when you try to yield.
