fpscontroller.lua in C++

[Dan]

I am trying to make a simple proof of concept and I want to be able to use my modified FPS and Vehicle LUA scripts within a C++ project. Has anyone done this yet and if so what is the call to the LUA script and where does it go?

This comes from the PDF document "Getting started with Lua":

 

The C++ programming language can interface seamlessly with Lua. Class scripts and startup scripts work with any program, including a C/C++ project.

C/C++ can also use the Lua command set to perform advanced actions. One common need is to set a

global variable in Lua to an object the user creates. Many of the class scripts rely on the "fw" variable being set to a framework object the application creates. Fortunately, the Lua command set allows us to easily set this value directly:

 

TFramework framework=CreateFramework()

unsigned char L=GetLuaState();

lua_pushobject(L,framework);

lua_setglobal(L,"fw");

lua_pop(L,1);

Also, MG has a good starting point to use as reference here
