Re: Lua-C++ Question

[Kevin Martin <kev82@...>]

Can you write some Lua code as an example of what you're trying to achieve? I don't understand. My best guess at what you mean leads me to:

If the subclass is a type in c++ then calling base class methods is no different than calling class methods, just wrap the subclass with a suitable metatable.

If the subclass isn't a type in c++ then provide a metatable for the class, and store the base class as field in the subclass table. Then write an __index method which for your subclass which calls the appropriate method on the appropriate self (base userdata or subclass table)

Thanks.
