Re: Lua 5.3 Suggestion: extend lua_(get|set)uservalue() to associate userdata-to-userdata

[Sir Pogsalot <sir.pogsalot@...>]

That is something I had not considered :-)  I'll do that -- still wondering what *uservalue() does, though... (internally).  I mean if it's possible to bind any two Lua objects together through the GC only then I'm still hoping to avoid the extra (single) table storing all my private userdatadata (hah).

You may also use the *same* table for all your userdata objects and index
it with the userdata each time. You'll probably need to use a weak table
to avoid freezing garbage.
