Hello All,
In my bindings I have a library created in C (using luaL_newlib)
Later on, In some situation, I would like to have another C code appending more functions into that existing library.
How can I do this only using C?
The resulting library is just an ordinary table containing functions, and luaL_newlib leaves that table on the top of the stack. Store a reference to that in the registry using luaL_ref and LUA_REGISTRYINDEX, then later you can fetch that table and use luaL_setfuncs again (luaL_newlib uses that function under the hood), or do it one at a time with the standard table manipulation functions.
