But the next question from Sony L. would be the following:
How to save intermediate value in this code
a:b.c()
a:b.d()
This idea a very strange object type in Lua creating an object that references two:
to rewrite it in optimized way
local x = a:b
x.c()
x.d()
The way I percieve it is that "x" should be a "proxying" function object (which internally will call function "b"), defined in a closure that holds the value "a". Something like:
local x = function
local __o___ = a;
return function(...)
return b(__o__, ...)
end
end
x(c)
x(d)
This adds the overhead of one level of function call (even if this is a trailing call that will not consume stack space)
