Re: Clone a Lua State

[Jean Claude Morlier <morlier@...>]

Yes it was for the same than above.
I need to have a main state and at many time I want to clone it, load
some user script and activate some actions on it. If computation is Ok I
get results to reapply to main state  and I kill cloned script.
So I have some bonus 
	- this run like a transaction with commit rollback.
	- I can control modifications on main state
	- I have not main state memory grows up.
	- User Script don't stay in memory after use.

PS: I use Lua 4.0, so please could you tell me if I can do it easilly
with Lua 4.1
