Re: intercept settable_event

[hz <hz@...>]

Thanks. 

had implemented as this:

--

setmetatable(obj, {

__newindex = function (tab, k, v)

print('setting: ' .. k .. ' -> ' .. tostring(v))

rawset(tab, k, v)

end

})

which will only trigger the first setting for a new key:

self.data['foo'] = 'bar'

self.data['foo'] = 'next-bar’

any way, nice solution, thanks.

is there a way to intercept the settable_event?

want to implement kind of getter/setter observer for a table (similar to the KVO in Cocoa). Is there a way to do this in pure lua?

local realobj = {}

local obj = setmetatable({}, { 

  __index = realobj, 

  __newindex = function(self, k, v)

    -- it's settable event for obj

    realobj[k]=v

 end,

})
