Hi people, I'm calling lua functions from my C++ app via LuaPlus using a LuaFunction object. If the lua code contains any errors I get an exception with a description string of "0", which isn't too helpful really. If I run the function via DoString I get a normal error report string on the stack top as per vanilla Lua. Anyone have any experience with LuaPlus/exception handling at all?

Damn. There doesn't seem to be anyone left on the planet using LuaPlus... Knew I should have gone with Squirrel ;)

If you're still going for Lua, why not something more recent than Luaplus, like Luabind?

Yeah it might be time to try LuaBind... (I was hoping to not depend on Boost, but I'm thinking more and more 'why the hell not'...)
