[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next] [Date Index] [Thread Index]


Yep, i've got that, but all the functionality of the functions are described all over the text. What I want basically is a list of all the lua API functions a C/C++ has available, ideally with some (if old) docs describing they do. For example:

LUALIB_API lua_State *(luaL_newstate) (void);
-- Opens a new lua state. After this call, it is ready to be used. Returns NULL if memory error, or if the world has suddenly come to an end.

LUA_API void (lua_close) (lua_State *L);
-- Closes an already open lua_State. If L is NULL, will do nothing. Frees memory.

etc.

Is there anything like that in a single list? Since i'm not familiar with the Lua API, searching through pages of text trying to find functions is not ideal.

Cheers!

Yeah, something like that, but for the API, not the lua language.

Is the official Lua API documentation here:

I'm wanting a more "friendly" way of accessing the Lua API docs. I basically want a list of all the functions available. Ideally, i'd be looking for something like what doxygen generates.

Does anyone have anything like this?

Maybe something like Chapter 5 in the reference manual?

there is a chapter "The C API" or something in the online book "Programming in Lua" .
