Re: Sharing userdata among stats.

[Laurent FAILLIE <l_faillie@...>]

I tried

        local q3 = SelFIFO.Find("myFifo")
        local mt = getmetatable(q3)
        mt.__index = mt
        q3:dump()

but the result is the same :

    Selenites/FIFO.sel:27: attempt to call method 'dump' (a nil value)

Anyway, it's strange it's working in my main thread and not the slave one : state initialization code is strictly the same.

Best regards,

Laurent

  Does mt == mt.__index?
