Detailed Description

template<typename ThisType, typename FunctionType>
class LuaTB< ThisType, FunctionType >

Makes certain functions visible to lua while staying type-safe on the C++ side.

Member Function Documentation

template<typename ThisType , typename FunctionType >

template<FunctionType func>

static void LuaTB< ThisType, FunctionType >::registerFunction ( ThisType *  _this, lua_State *  lua, std::string  name  )

static

Make a function visible to lua.

Parameters

_this	Pointer to the object that owns the function
lua	Pointer to the lua state
name	Name that will be visible to lua for this function

Only class functions are supported, because that's all we need at the moment. Extending it to support normal functions as well should be fairly easy, though.

If you want to make a function 'Foo::bar' visible, you should call it like this (assuming no C++17 support):

LuaTB<Foo, decltype(&Foo::bar)>::registerFunction<&Foo::bar>( ... );
