How to use custom __index in LuaJava?

[Jonas Bengtsson <jonas.b@...>]

Hi y'all!

Consider these two use cases:

1) For some classes I want to support 'method calls' which are not part 
of the class, e.g. so you can write obj.foo instead of obj:getFoo() and 
obj.foo = bar instead of obj:setFoo(bar).

2) When a script is trying to access a global that doesn't exist I'd 
like to dynamically provide some value from some hash table in java land.

How would you normally solve those problems in LuaJava? In vanilla Lua I 
guess it would involve metatables, and __index/__newindex.


Also, is LuaJava 1.1 far from release?

Cheers,
 Jonas
