Detailed Description

A LuaFunctionDefinition is derived from FunctionDefinition to define a faudes-function by a Lua script. It has the Lua code as an additional member variable and uses a LuaFunction as a prototype object. In particular, LuaFunctionDefinitions are allways valid in the sense that hey have a prototype. The LuaFunction object implements DoTypeCheck and DoExecute to run the specifed Lua code. Thus, a LuaFunction can be tranparently accessed via the run-time interface and bahves like any other registered faudes function.

Alternatively, you can use the Install() method to install a LuaFunctionDefinition to a LuaState. Then, the function can be accessed by the Lua interpreter. Install() will generate code to dispatch the function variants with the same semantics as the SWIG generated interface for other faudes functions. Again, integeration is transparent from the perspective of the Lua interpreter.

The token io format is demonstrated by the following example:

<LuaFunctionDefinition name="LuaExtension::LargeGenerator">
 
<Documentation> 
Construct a generator by random.
</Documentation>
<Keywords> "luaextension" "example" </Keywords>
 
<VariantSignatures>
<Signature name="LargeGen(#Q,#Sigma,GRes)">
<Parameter name="SizeQ"      ftype="Integer"   access="In"/>
<Parameter name="SizeSigma"  ftype="Integer"   access="In"/>
<Parameter name="Res"        ftype="Generator" access="Out" />
</Signature>
</VariantSignatures>
 
<LuaCode> 
<[CDATA[
 
-- Extension reports on loading
print('loading luaextension "LargeGenerator"')
 
-- Define my function (mangled version of variant name)
function faudes.LargeGen_Q_Sigma_GRes(qn,sn,gen)
 
-- Function reports on execution 
print(string.format('LargeGen(...): qn=%d sn=%d',qn,sn))
 
-- Exeution code
gen:Clear()
for i=1,qn do
  gen:InsState(i)
end
for i=1,sn do 
  gen:InsEvent(string.format('ev_%d',i))
end
 
-- Done
return 
 
-- End of function definition
end
 
-- Extension reports on loading
print('loading luaextension: done')
 
]]>
</LuaCode>
 
</LuaFunctionDefinition>

Restrictions and conventions:

Type-checking is done via the Cast() function of the faudes Type interface. As a consequence, you may only use types that are registered with the run-time-interface.
On execution, the LuaFunction instance has to locate the respective function in the supplied lua code. In order to allow for multiple variants, the convention is to have one lua function each with the name of the corresponding variant. Since variant names may contain funny characters, name matching is performed after so called mangeling: any sequence of non-alpha-numerics is replaced by a single "_", a trailing "_" is dropped. E.g. the variant res=a+b matches the Lua function res_a_b.
Parameters other than elementary (integer, boolean and string) are passed to the Lua function by reference. However, Lua will consistently interpret the reference itself as a parameter value. Thus, to assign a value to an access="Out" or access="InOut" parameter, you must use the assigment memberfunction Assign (as opposed to the assignment operator "=").
Elementary types (i.e. integers, booleans and strings) are passed to the Lua function by value. Thus, it would be pointless to have an elementary typed parameter with access attribute other than access="In". In order to implement elementary typed return values, the respective Lua function must return the corresponding values by an approriate return statement. The signature should indicate this by the attribute creturn="true". The current implementation will automatically imply creturn="true" for any access="Out" or access="InOut".
Since luafaudes has no concept of const references, it is the responsability of the script programer to respect parameter access attributes.
When using Install() to install the function to a LuaState, a single wrapper function will be defined to dispatch variants. By convention, this function is located in faudes.name_of_fdef, where name_of_fdef is the name of the respective LuaFunctionDefinition.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ LuaFunctionDefinition() [1/2]

faudes::LuaFunctionDefinition::LuaFunctionDefinition ( const std::string & name = "" )

Constructor.

In contrast to the std FunctionDefinition, the default constructor sets up a valid lua function definition with a newly created LuaFunction as prototype. Of course, you will need to set the signatures and the lua code to obtain an operational function.

Definition at line 180 of file lbp_function.cpp.

◆ LuaFunctionDefinition() [2/2]

faudes::LuaFunctionDefinition::LuaFunctionDefinition ( const LuaFunctionDefinition & rSrc )

Copy constructor

◆ DefaultL() [1/2]

void faudes::LuaFunctionDefinition::DefaultL ( LuaState * pL )

Set default lua state.

Sets the default lua state on which functions that refer to this function definition will use for execution. If set to NULL (e.g. on consruction), the global state is used. However, the function object itself may overwrite the default.

Parameters

Reimplemented from faudes::FunctionDefinition.

◆ Evaluate()

std::string faudes::LuaFunctionDefinition::Evaluate ( LuaState * pL = NULL )

Evaluate lua code.

This routine evaluates the LuaCode literally. This method is used to execute LuaCode that is not part of any particular variant. To execute a particular variant, instantiate a LuaFunction and invoke Execute().

If you pass NULL as destination state, the global state will be used.

Parameters

pL	Reference to the Lua state

Returns: Error message as string, or empty string on success

Definition at line 303 of file lbp_function.cpp.

◆ Install() [1/2]

void faudes::LuaFunctionDefinition::Install ( lua_State * pLL ) const

Install this function to a Lua state.

Alternative signature for applications that do not use the the LuaState wrapper class. See also Install(LuaState*).

Parameters

pLL	Reference to the Lua state

Definition at line 326 of file lbp_function.cpp.

◆ Install() [2/2]

void faudes::LuaFunctionDefinition::Install ( LuaState * pL = NULL ) const

Install this function to a Lua state

This routine installs the Lua code of this function definition to the table "faudes" of the specified Lua state. It also constructs a wrapper function to dispatch signatures and palces this in the table "faudes". Effectively, the resulting Lua state is prepared to execute the Lua function with the same semantics as used for SWIG generated wrappers of C++ functions.

If you pass NULL as destination state, the global state will be used.

Parameters

pL	Reference to the Lua state

Definition at line 320 of file lbp_function.cpp.

◆ LuaCode() [1/2]

static

◆ SyntaxCheck()

std::string faudes::LuaFunctionDefinition::SyntaxCheck ( void )

Syntax check lua code.

This routine instantiates a LuaFunction from this function definition and does all it needs to run the script, except to invoke the any of the variant functions. The reasoning is, that the script may hang and, thus, never return. Errors are indicated returned as an error string.

Returns: Error message as string, or empty string on success
