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



Example:
local t={}setmetatable(t,{__call=t})()

This causes an infinite loop in the latest Lua version (5.4.3).

I don't get an infinite loop when executing the example code, instead I get:
./lua: test.lua:1: stack overflow
stack traceback:
        test.lua:1: in main chunk
        [C]: in ?
Since every call in the cain will push one value to the stack this should happen every time eventually.
