Foreign.Lua.Core.Types

Contents

Description

The core Lua types, including mappings of Lua types to Haskell.

This module has mostly been moved to Types and currently re-exports that module. This module might be removed in the future.

An opaque structure that points to a thread and indirectly (through the thread) to the whole state of a Lua interpreter. The Lua library is fully reentrant: it has no global variables. All information about a state is accessible through this structure.

type Reader = FunPtr (State -> Ptr () -> Ptr CSize -> IO (Ptr CChar)) Source #

The reader function used by load. Every time it needs another piece of the chunk, lua_load calls the reader, passing along its data parameter. The reader must return a pointer to a block of memory with a new piece of the chunk and set size to the block size. The block must exist until the reader function is called again. To signal the end of the chunk, the reader must return NULL or set size to zero. The reader function may return pieces of any size greater than zero.

See lua_Reader.

state :: Lua State Source #

Get the Lua state of this Lua computation.

runWithConverter :: ErrorConversion -> State -> Lua a -> IO a Source #

Run Lua computation with the given Lua state and error-to-exception converter. Any resulting exceptions are left unhandled.

unsafeRunWith :: State -> Lua a -> IO a Source #

Run the given operation, but crash if any Haskell exceptions occur.

unsafeErrorConversion :: ErrorConversion Source #

Unsafe ErrorConversion; no proper error handling is attempted, any error leads to a crash.

toType :: TypeCode -> Type Source #

liftIO :: MonadIO m => IO a -> m a #

Lift a computation from the IO monad.

type CFunction = FunPtr (State -> IO NumResults) Source #

Type for C functions.

In order to communicate properly with Lua, a C function must use the following protocol, which defines the way parameters and results are passed: a C function receives its arguments from Lua in its stack in direct order (the first argument is pushed first). So, when the function starts, gettop returns the number of arguments received by the function. The first argument (if any) is at index 1 and its last argument is at index gettop. To return values to Lua, a C function just pushes them onto the stack, in direct order (the first result is pushed first), and returns the number of results. Any other value in the stack below the results will be properly discarded by Lua. Like a Lua function, a C function called by Lua can also return many results.

See lua_CFunction.
