https://git.lua4.win/lua/atom?h=v5.5.12026-06-17T14:20:10+00:00Bug: 'luaL_newmetatable' used in a wrong way2026-06-17T14:20:10+00:00Roberto Iroberto@inf.puc-rio.br2026-06-17T14:20:10+00:00urn:sha1:bc4bbcef651ba2870d6c68db16dc7d6ce6f68636
The call to 'luaL_newmetatable' in 'newbox' can leave an incomplete
metatable in the registry, if 'luaL_setfuncs' raises a memory error.
Avoid macros luaL_loadbuffer and luaL_loadfile2026-04-07T16:42:34+00:00Roberto Iroberto@inf.puc-rio.br2026-04-07T16:42:34+00:00urn:sha1:29cf284089d543408d726440a3f1acaecdf73636
Use luaL_loadbufferx and luaL_loadfilex instead, being explicit about
whether to accept binary chunks.
'luaL_newstate' starts state with warnings on2025-12-13T14:00:30+00:00Roberto Iroberto@inf.puc-rio.br2025-12-13T14:00:30+00:00urn:sha1:3d03ae5bd6314f27c8635e06ec363150c2c19062
It is easier to forget to turn them on then to turn them off.
Standard allocator function added to the API2025-10-17T16:53:35+00:00Roberto Iroberto@inf.puc-rio.br2025-10-17T16:53:35+00:00urn:sha1:b352217b8498a5ed8f6c954b3da365fcbb89751f
That makes easier to redefine luaL_newstate.
'onelua' can use the test library2025-07-29T17:35:04+00:00Roberto Ierusalimschyroberto@inf.puc-rio.br2025-07-29T17:35:04+00:00urn:sha1:8fddca81e7d4137512e92f398ca638d61b935dbd
Just add -DLUA_USER_H='"ltests.h"' when compiling it.
Order change in 'pushfuncname'2025-04-03T18:31:22+00:00Roberto Ierusalimschyroberto@inf.puc-rio.br2025-04-03T18:31:22+00:00urn:sha1:3dd8ea54daa77345a8f193e871f6792722d8e131
'pushglobalfuncname' can be quite slow (as it traverses all globals and
all loaded modules), so try first to get a name from the code.
Growth factor of 1.5 for stack and lexical buffer2025-03-31T16:44:41+00:00Roberto Ierusalimschyroberto@inf.puc-rio.br2025-03-31T16:44:41+00:00urn:sha1:f4123b2fc2a662c08e3d7edc721241c251a22c4bRenaming two new functions2025-01-27T19:09:55+00:00Roberto Ierusalimschyroberto@inf.puc-rio.br2025-01-27T19:09:55+00:00urn:sha1:c4e7cdb541d89142056927ebdfd8f97017d38f45
'lua_numbertostrbuff' -> 'lua_numbertocstring'
'lua_pushextlstring' -> 'lua_pushexternalstring'
Debug information about extra arguments from __call2024-11-19T17:09:18+00:00Roberto Ierusalimschyroberto@inf.puc-rio.br2024-11-19T17:09:18+00:00urn:sha1:50c7c915ee2fa239043d5456237f5145d064089b
'debug.getinfo' can return number of extra arguments added to a call by
a chain of __call metavalues. That information is being used to improve
error messages about errors in these extra arguments.
New function 'lua_numbertostrbuff'2024-10-23T20:16:17+00:00Roberto Ierusalimschyroberto@inf.puc-rio.br2024-10-23T20:16:17+00:00urn:sha1:e3ce88c9e850b7e79751083014699c5eae1bff31
It converts a Lua number to a string in a buffer, without creating
a new Lua string.
