Nice to see such a resurgence of Lua.
Shame __metatable doesn't work yet as that's what really makes the language special(to me), allowing you to build any meta-language features ontop of a solid runtime. Hopefully they'll have it working soon.
- ludamad 11y agoJust someone that does want to see Lua more popular - what are you referring to as a resurgence? Following hacker news I don't tend to see much Lua at all at least
- johlo 11y agoMetatables seem to be supported, have a look at benchmark/suites/mtvsclosure.lua
- rvirding 11y agoOf course metatables are supported, it wouldn't be much of a Lua without them. Luerl is standard Lua 5.2 except for coroutines.
