Ditto that. I think I'd have to add an ipairs to all of my Lua projects if that's the case.. the "local v = arr[k]" pattern doesn't appeal to me at all, and for many neither does replacing v with "arr[k]" at each use. On another note though, *hurrah* for being able to remove lua_absidx from all my lua projects. I was never happy with being required to understand Lua's magic numbers (ie LUA_REGISTRYINDEX) to be able to make such a function, so it's a great addition to which I thank the authors :) - AlexShmuel Zeigerman wrote:I'd like ipairs to stay. Otherwise most of my code will be polluted with an additional line, e.g.for k = 1, #arr do local v = arr[k] -- this wasn't needed with ipairs ...... end
