Hallo,
I'm using lua as a description language. Expressions like point =
Point{ x = 0.0, z = 0.0 } create a userdata (a pointer to a Point class
instance). When I write sphere = Sphere{ centre = Point{ x = 0.0 }, radius
= 1.0}, the point's value is copied and so it must be garbage collected.
Will it? If no, does anyone have a good idea to give me ? :))
Cheers,
