Mudlet-2.0 release candidates [latest: Mudlet 2.0 final]

[Vadi]

The reason for it working was that we switched to a different Lua VM, which did not keep the depreciated-in-5.1 change.

In the changelog of the main post, it mentions that deleteArea() was fixed in rc2. However, in the latest verion (windows 2.0-test3), it appears to be broken. All rooms are deleted, but the area itself remains firmly lodged in getAreaTable() with no apparent means of cleaning it up...

[Vadi]

Yes, for certain areas it does that: https://bugs.launchpad.net/mudlet/+bug/782840

Thanks Vadi, I'll start logging issues in launchpad. I just came across issues with searchRoom() as well - it seems to be only returning one match regardless of how many matches it should be returning.

[Vadi]

Yes, that is known

1. I can add that the function argument can also be provided as a function object. This would allow for pretty much anything. registerAnonymousEventHandler("foo", function coolFunc() my.namespace( "bla") end )

2. I don't want to add a clear() function because this would be a problem in a multiple plugin environment, but I'll add handlerID = registerAnonyousEventHandler(...) and unregisterAnonymousEventHandler( handlerID )

3. GetAnonymousEventHandlers is also possible of course.

Any progress on this? It would be very useful. I can roll my own, but it would be slightly less than ideal.

Registering an event from a script is supported now, search about (sorry, on mobile atm, can't give a link)

[Widjet]

Yes, it is, and that's great (I'm using it), but unregistering isn't supported yet, which is a problem for anything temporary. In addition, you can't register arbitrary functions, you register a string that gets executed in the global namespace, which means that you can't register locals with closures.

So I just installed Test4, and the install went fine....until I go to boot up. I get the following error:

[ ERROR ] - LuaGlobal.lua compile error - please report!cannot open mudlet-
lua/lua/LuaGlobal.lua: No such file or directory

The file is there, I've tried changing the folder name which is called files to "lua", but that didn't help any.

The Debian wheezy package listed on the first post, is not able to be found for installation.
Is it hosted somewhere else too?
