Re: [ANN] Lua 5.2, cross-platform debugging, and LuaJIT live coding support in MobDebug and ZeroBrane Studio

[Frederico Rodrigues Abraham <devotion97@...>]

i see.
i am indeed using a new tolua version, which adds the '#' operator for
some objects created by tolua.
but i wonder: shouldn't this error appear only when the current stack
contains this kind of userdata value?

thank you,
