Roberto Ierusalimschy 9e0a8475cd Added 'simplesect' sections to the manual
'simplesect' encloses the introductory text of sections with
subsections, so that each section either is all text or is all
subsections. (This commit also corrects a small brace error in the
manual and extra spaces/tabs in some other files.)

Roberto Ierusalimschy b93f3b00bb Added function 'luaL_buffsub' 2019-10-23 11:10:19 -03:00
Roberto Ierusalimschy b96b0b5abb Added macro 'luaL_pushfail'
The macro 'luaL_pushfail' documents all places in the standard libraries
that return nil to signal some kind of failure. It is defined as
'lua_pushnil'. The manual also got a notation (@fail) to document those
returns. The tests were changed to be agnostic regarding whether 'fail'
is 'nil' or 'false'.

Roberto Ierusalimschy c65605151c New function 'luaL_addgsub'
Added a new function 'luaL_addgsub', similar to 'luaL_gsub' but that
adds its result directly to a preexisting buffer, avoiding the creation
of one extra intermediate string. Also added two simple macros,
'luaL_bufflen' and 'luaL_buffaddr', to query the current length
and the contents address of a buffer.

Roberto Ierusalimschy 46beca5bed Better error messages for some polymorphic functions
New auxiliary functions/macros 'luaL_argexpected'/'luaL_typeerror'
ease the creation of error messages such as

  bad argument #2 to 'setmetatable' (nil or table expected, got boolean)

(The novelty being the "got boolean" part...)

Roberto Ierusalimschy 2fc6b55dae Removed resource-related "emergency collections"
New to-be-closed variables is a better way to ensure the proper release
of resources.

Roberto Ierusalimschy 3d838f635c Added "emergency collection" to 'io.tmpfile' and 'os.tmpname'
These operations also can give errors for lack of resources, so they
also will try "emergency collections" in case of resource errors.
Because there are now two libraries with that kind of handling,
'resourcetryagain' was moved to the auxiliary library to be shared
by the libraries.

Roberto Ierusalimschy 66d046833d no need to check "bad conversion number->int;" in luaL_checkversion,
as now Lua does not use tricks for the conversion, but there is a
need to check the sizes of number types, as they can be different
in two modules

themselves with 'require' (let 'require' do its work); new auxiliary

Old luaL_register will be deprecated.
