Re: [ANNOUNCE] Lua 5.0 (alpha) now available

[John Belmonte <jvb@...>]

Hi,

The alpha version looks great.  I have a few questions and suggestions:


* list generator

  I'd like to see a generator in the library for lists that doesn't
  include the index as ipairs does:

    for v in list(t) do ... end


* pushfstring/pushvfstring (4.7)

  Why the restricted custom implementation instead of building these
  using vsprintf?  Note that LUA_NUMBER_FMT can always be inserted into
  a static format using C string concatenation.


* what happens if a finalizer function leaves a reference to the given
  object? (3.7.1)


-John
