Registering Static Functions

It is also possible to register static functions with the LuaAPI which allows you to call a function within a script that affects your program without needing to pass objects to and from Lua.

Using Static Functions

extern int Outputi(const int& i, const float& f) {
	std::cout << "Success: " << i << " + " <<
      f << "!" << std::endl;
	return 0;
}

luaApi.RegisterStaticFunction<int, const int&,
    const float&>("uair.tmpStcFncif", &Outputi);

try {
  std::string scr = R"(
    uair.tmpStcFncif(1, 2.4)
  )";

  luaApi.CallString(scr);
} catch (std::exception& e) {
  std::cout << e.what() << std::endl;
}
