Re: specified stack level expression evaluation

[mascarenhas@... (Fabio Mascarenhas)]

Hi,

You can put the local variables in a table, and set it as the 
envinronment of the function that loadstring returns. If you also want 
the current global environment, you can set the global environment as 
the __index metamethod of the table where you put the locals.

There is an example of this technique in the RemDebug source code, check 
http://luaforge.net/projects/remdebug.
