Identifying method calls on metatables

["Luís Eduardo Jason Santos" <jasonsantos@...>]

Hi,

Have anyone tried to determine, through a metatable, whether a given table key was called as a property or called as a method?

Something like:

t = setmetatable({}, my_mt)
print(t.a)   -- one behaviour
print(t.a()) -- another behaviour

I have tried some ways, but all I could muster was this:

my_mt = {

}
