[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next] [Date Index] [Thread Index]


Oh, I just cut it from my code so ... sorry for my mistake.

local num = 1
function print_num()
    print(num)
end
return {print_num = print_num}

and Used as:

A = require('a')
A.print_num()

I'm not sure what you're trying to do with load(). It looks like
you've given A as the environment rather than the function. Also,
since the module doesn't return anything, require('a') will return
true. (and will set the global print_num, which may or may not be your
intention; it's considered bad practice for modules to set globals.)

There is debug.setupvalue() to change upvalues of a function. However,
it takes an upvalue index, not a name, so you'd need to loop through
the function's upvalues with debug.getupvalue(), find the one named
'num', and change it. (I'm not sure if upvalue indexes start at 0 or
1, though.)
