[Jose Marin <jose_marin2@...>]

Great, but some samples on how to use it properly would be nice! :-)

Assunto: user data with pointer template

I have written the following template to help me when wrapping C/C++
pointers in lua userdata.  Any comments or ideas?

regards,
panagiotis.

/*
  User Data With Pointer AUXiliary template.

  Mostly inspired by `User Data With Pointer Example' on the lua wiki,
  provides definitions for various almost-always-used functions.  The
  second argument is a trait that has only one method `name', that
  returns a string for the wrapped type.  Note that `alloc' does not
  allocate anything (we do not know if the wrapped type has a default
  constructor), just sets up the passed pointer on the lua stack.
