RE: Lua 5 vs Lua 4

[Brian Weed <bw@...>]

Ok, so I have alternatives for all except LUA_ERRORMESSAGE.

In Lua v4.x  I overloaded the Lua "_ERRORMESSAGE" global error handler
function so that any errors detected by Lua would call my error handler
instead of it's own.  But now that function is gone, and I am wondering how
I can do this in v5.

Brian.

userdata: isn't it there?  I did make a 4/5 compatibility layer above
this anyways, you might want to take a look at 'gluax_50.c' (part of
'gluax-devel', http://sourceforge.net/projects/luacheia).

getglobals: something like 'getfenv' or so now.. (function environment)
I was actually one of the people for the name change but ..now later..
would actually like the old terminology back. ;)

Lua on OS X: I use it all the time, but via gluax (no OS X specific
stuff, graphics go via SDL etc.) What's your concern?
