Re: Inheritance with Lunar

One solution would be to copy the methods from Control to Label.

Hi,

I´ve looking for this subject in the internet, did some tests but not found an answer.

It´s possible for a class declared in Lunar to inherit methods from another class?

Example (pseudo code):

class Control
{
public:

void setPosition(int x, int y);
};

class Label: public Control
{
public:

void setText(const char* text);
};

Label is derived from Control, so it should access the method setPosition from Control class.

Thanks

Jose

Not using Lunar, but given the class hierarchy [1] then [2] and [3] are how Luabind, LuaBridge, OOLua and SLB3 bind such classes and they all support your request. If they are not to your liking there are other libraries which bind C++ and Lua listed on the wiki[4].
