Hi my app (C/C++) loads & runs a LUA file…
When I do that calling lua_pcall(,) the "run" action blocks the thread until
the VM finishes
the execution. This blocked thread represents a problem for lengthy scripts.
Then, is there any way to asynchronously control a running VM ?
Something like “Pause”, “Resume” “Abort”.
I know I could implement this with coroutines, but that is not what I want; I’m
looking a way to do
this completely hidden from LUA side .
If this is not available, does anyone know LJ source code to recommend
where/how this could be
implemented. Thanks.
