Lutok is a lightweight C++ API library for Lua.
|
|
|
|
Lutok provides thin C++ wrappers around the Lua C API to ease the
|
|
interaction between C++ and Lua. These wrappers make intensive use of
|
|
RAII to prevent resource leakage, expose C++-friendly data types, report
|
|
errors by means of exceptions and ensure that the Lua stack is always
|
|
left untouched in the face of errors. The library also provides a small
|
|
subset of miscellaneous utility functions built on top of the wrappers.
|
|
|
|
Lutok focuses on providing a clean and safe C++ interface; the drawback
|
|
is that it is not suitable for performance-critical environments. In
|
|
order to implement error-safe C++ wrappers on top of a Lua C binary
|
|
library, Lutok adds several layers or abstraction and error checking
|
|
that go against the original spirit of the Lua C API and thus degrade
|
|
performance.
