Hi.
Porting Lua5 to PalmOS is proving more problematic then first 
anticipated  so I have decided to take a step back and look at Lua4 as a 
possible solution (as it more or less just works on PalmOS). However 
despite reading copius amounts of the lua archive and code examples I 
seem to have failed to find a simple cpp binding example for Lua4. I 
really like the metatables of Lua5, and tagmethods although simpler by 
design seem to end up more complex in use, and I could do with some 
pointers.
Does anyone have a simple example of binding a cpp class to Lua4, 
similar to the example for Lua5 
(http://lua-users.org/wiki/SimpleCppBinding). Google did throw up a  
good  resource on  classes in Lua4 
(http://lua-users.org/wiki/ClassesAndMethods)  which was helpful in 
understanding tag methods, but I am unsure how to register and poke the 
up values of my class from C.
Any examples would be much appreciated. If anyone wants the source of 
the Lua4 PalmOS port I am working from drop me an email.
Kind Regards.
