Re: Serializing Lua State in use with Luabind

[Stefan Schwarzbach <Schwarzbach@...>]

Okay, I'll give that a try.

I also found the position in LuaBind's open function where the 
metatables are created.
But what I'm not sure is, that the meta table I will add to the 
permantents table does not contain any data that will be needed when 
restoring the Lua state... I hope so

Then I have another question:
In my project, I also must access instances of c++ classes from lua. How 
does the serialization of lua functions happen. Could it be a problem to 
serialize a lua function which locally calls a function of a c++ class 
or simply a c/c++ function? Can you serialize this?

Big Thanks,
Stefan
