I wanted to make a Visual Studio .Net (2003) add-in which
will add debugging support for lua scripts. The idea
is that the add-in will allow you to debug normal C++ code and lua code at the same time i.e. during normal debugging
sessions you can set break points in lua scripts (in
Visual Studio) and whenever that script is called the debugger will break on
that break point in lua code, and you can watch local
and global variables in a watch window. I know about lua_sethook(…) whereby I can set hook to different events
whenever a lua vm is
executing some code. However, the lua_sethook(…) is dependent on a lua_state.
Now my addin will be a separate dll
which will have no information of which lua_state
instance is executing a particular script. Now I want to know whether such a
feat is possible at all or not? Has anyone tried this
before? I know about the LuaPlus addin,
but it doesn’t work on my studio (will post it on their forum later). Any help shall be appreciated. Regards, Zulfiqar Inayat Malik. |
