Program qlua
Program qlua is a compatible replacement for
the standard interpreter program lua
with several new capabilities:
- New packages provides a rich interface with the Qt4 library:
qt,qtwidget,qttorch,qtuiloader.
- The Lua interpreter runs in a dedicated thread. The main thread remains in charge of graphical interface and user interaction. Therefore all graphical interfaces remain active while the interpreter is running.
- Console output can be captured and emitted as Qt signals. Therefore one can program a complete integrated development environment including a graphical console.
- When using
qlua, packagesgraphicsandgfxproduce drawings using Qt instead of using the Cairo library.
