Constraints patch - help?

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


I'm repeating the request for help, from people interested in getting function parameter, local var, and return value constraints to Lua.
The approach I'm taking is a patch, because:
- I'd like this feature to get _into_ Lua, instead of being a kludge add-on
 - performance should be made as good as possible
Current state of the patch is that all parsing is done (and works); constraint strings are placed in variable and function data structures in seemingly meaningful places. What remains is ways to enforce the constraints at runtime. A group of people for discussing different alternatives would be useful, as bouncing something within a sole person's head is never the most creative approach. We could use this list, but I'm afraid it's bound to get into teeny-weeny details pretty soon (= instantly). Once a working, tested concept patch is there, the list can be informed.
thanks, :)
