Hello,
I would like to be able to "forward invocations" when an object doesn't
implement a given method.
My objects are defined as tables of functions, which are usually
invoked like this:
anObject.doIt( true )
'anObject' being a table. 'doIt' a function. And 'true' a parameter.
If the 'anObject' table doesn't have a 'doIt' key, I can most likely
catch this with metatable __index... but... how do I get the original
parameters so I can build an alternative invocation to dispatch
somewhere else?
TIA!
Cheers
