后面的变量(ox 和 self.y)有什么区别?
您在这里有两张桌子,object
并且o
.
里面的object:new
,self
指的是桌子object
。self.y
表中的字段也是如此object
。
o
是您在每次调用时创建的新表object:new
。o.x
是表中的一个字段o
。
该o
表只有一个条目: o["x"]
,因此当您迭代表中的条目时(就像print_r
这样),这就是您将看到的全部内容。
那么为什么o.y
会给你一个价值呢?因为您将表设置object
为o
'元表并且该元表设置了它的__index
字段,所以当索引尝试失败时o
,Lua 将通过o
' 元表再次尝试(如果它设置了 __index)。
一点代码可能会使这一点更清楚:
o = { x = 33 }
print(o.x, o.y) --> 33 nil
-- let's give o a metatable
mt = { y = 20 }
setmetatable(o, mt)
-- we've given o a metatable, but that metatable doesn't have an __index member set
print(o.y) --> nil
-- metatable `handlers` are normally functions that handle events
-- here we create a handler for indexing a table if the key doesn't exist in the table:
mt.__index = function(t,k)
print("An attempt was made to index table", t, "with the key", k)
return 5150
end
-- we've given o's metatable a handler for indexing which always returns 5150
print(o.x) --> 33
print(o.y) --> 5150
print(o.z) --> 5150
print(o.donut) --> 5150
-- note that Lua has a "rawget" function, which bypasses the metatable mechanics
print(rawget(o,'x')) --> 33, we get a value, because o actually contains "x"
print(rawget(o,'y')) --> nil, back to nil, because the metatable is being ignored
-- the __index metatable handler is special. Instead of providing a function
-- to handle missing key events, you can give it a table. If an index attempt fails,
-- it will try again in the __index table
mt.__index = mt -- we could have used a third table here, but mt has the y entry we want
-- we've changed the metatable handler, so now we'll get 777
print(o.y) --> 777
-- changes to the metatable are reflected in any object using it as metatable
mt.__index.y = 999
print(o.y) --> 999
-- now we give `o` it's OWN "y" entry, so the metatable handler will no longer be invoked
o.y = 2112
print(o.y) --> 2112
print(rawget(o, 'y')) --> o really owns this "y" entry
print(mt.__index.y) --> 999, the metatable was untouched by our write to o.y
