LibOOP

LibOOP

The LibOOP library provides basic object-oriented programming features in Lua (classes, objects, and simple inheritance). It is meant to offer a framework-independent, lighter-weight (but less featureful) alternative to AceOO-2.

- please note that 0.2 is NOT backwards compatible with 0.1.3
- almost all methods have been renamed for better clarity and consistency
- now supports runtime-upgrades via LibStub
- the "Super" method of both classes and objects should now work when called via a subclass of the class which defined the method which calls Super()
- the "Super" method of both classes and objects should now work when the inherited method to be called also used "Super" to call a further inherited method
- class methods "GetSuperClass", "SubClassOf" and "Super" (inherited from the base class) may no longer be overridden
- object methods "GetClass", "InstanceOf" and "Super" (inherited from the base prototype) may no longer be overridden
- constructors are now implemented by overriding the class' "New" method; the object method name "__init" no longer has any special meaning (however, in general, method names beginning with two underscores are still reserved for future magic)
- objects now inherit a basic "Clone" method from the base prototype
- the library method "Class" no longer accepts an argument; to extend an existing class, use "<class>:Extend()"
- the library method "New" is removed; to instantiate a class, use "<class>:New()" or "<class>()"
- library methods will accept arguments which are not classes or objects, and will usually return nil or do nothing in this case
- messages have been added to errors and assertions to identify what and where the error was
- getmetatable() on an object will now return the object's class' prototype table, instead of the class table
- LibOOP is now licensed under the MIT License, whose text is included in the file "license.txt";
