Lua.Constants

Description

Lua constants

Synopsis

Special values

pattern LUA_MULTRET :: NumResults Source #

Option for multiple returns in lua_pcall.

Pseudo-indices

pattern LUA_REGISTRYINDEX :: StackIndex Source #

Stack index of the Lua registry.

Basic types

pattern LUA_TNONE :: TypeCode Source #

Non-valid stack index

pattern LUA_TNIL :: TypeCode Source #

Type of Lua's nil value

pattern LUA_TBOOLEAN :: TypeCode Source #

Type of Lua booleans

pattern LUA_TLIGHTUSERDATA :: TypeCode Source #

Type of light userdata

pattern LUA_TNUMBER :: TypeCode Source #

Type of Lua numbers. See Number

pattern LUA_TSTRING :: TypeCode Source #

Type of Lua string values

pattern LUA_TTABLE :: TypeCode Source #

Type of Lua tables

pattern LUA_TFUNCTION :: TypeCode Source #

Type of functions, either normal or CFunction

pattern LUA_TUSERDATA :: TypeCode Source #

Type of full user data

pattern LUA_TTHREAD :: TypeCode Source #

Type of Lua threads

Status codes

pattern LUA_OK :: StatusCode Source #

Success.

pattern LUA_YIELD :: StatusCode Source #

Yielding / suspended coroutine.

pattern LUA_ERRRUN :: StatusCode Source #

A runtime error.

pattern LUA_ERRSYNTAX :: StatusCode Source #

A syntax error.

pattern LUA_ERRMEM :: StatusCode Source #

Memory allocation error. For such errors, Lua does not call the message handler.

pattern LUA_ERRGCMM :: StatusCode Source #

Error while running a __gc metamethod. For such errors, Lua does not call the message handler (as this kind of error typically has no relation with the function being called).

pattern LUA_ERRERR :: StatusCode Source #

Error while running the message handler.

pattern LUA_ERRFILE :: StatusCode Source #

File related error (e.g., the file cannot be opened or read).

Relational operator codes

pattern LUA_OPEQ :: OPCode Source #

Compares for equality (==)

pattern LUA_OPLT :: OPCode Source #

Compares for less than (<)

pattern LUA_OPLE :: OPCode Source #

Compares for less or equal (<=)

Garbage-collection options

pattern LUA_GCSTOP :: GCCode Source #

Stops the garbage collector.

pattern LUA_GCRESTART :: GCCode Source #

Restarts the garbage collector.

pattern LUA_GCCOLLECT :: GCCode Source #

Performs a full garbage-collection cycle.

pattern LUA_GCCOUNT :: GCCode Source #

Returns the current amount of memory (in Kbytes) in use by Lua.

pattern LUA_GCCOUNTB :: GCCode Source #

Returns the remainder of dividing the current amount of bytes of memory in use by Lua by 1024.

pattern LUA_GCSTEP :: GCCode Source #

Performs an incremental step of garbage collection.

pattern LUA_GCSETPAUSE :: GCCode Source #

Sets data as the new value for the pause of the collector (see §2.5) and returns the previous value of the pause.

pattern LUA_GCSETSTEPMUL :: GCCode Source #

Sets data as the new value for the step multiplier of the collector (see §2.5) and returns the previous value of the step multiplier.

pattern LUA_GCISRUNNING :: GCCode Source #

Returns a boolean that tells whether the collector is running (i.e., not stopped).

Predefined references

pattern LUA_REFNIL :: CInt Source #

Value signaling that no reference was created.

pattern LUA_NOREF :: CInt Source #

Value signaling that no reference was found.

Boolean

pattern TRUE :: LuaBool Source #

Value which Lua usually uses as True.

pattern FALSE :: LuaBool Source #

Value which Lua usually uses as False.
