表示意图是通知脚本作者常见错误(不使用local
)。
看起来这不是安全功能,所以我们有两个解决方案:
可以删除此保护:
local mt = setmetatable(_G, nil)
-- define global functions / variables
function alex() return 3.1415 end
-- return globals protection mechanizm
setmetatable(_G, mt)
或使用rawset
:
local function alex() return 3.1415 end
rawset(_G, "alex", alex)
