shared_ptr requires complete type; cannot use it with lua_State*
- by topright
Hello!
I'm writing a C++/OOP wrapper for Lua. My code is:
class LuaState
{
boost::shared_ptr<lua_State> L;
LuaState(): L( luaL_newstate(), LuaState::CustomDeleter )
{
}
}
The problem is lua_State is incomplete type and shared_ptr constructor requires complete type. And I need safe pointer sharing. (Funny thing boost docs say most functions do not require complete type, but constructor requires, so there is no way of using it. http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_42_0/libs/smart_ptr/smart_ptr.htm)
Can can I solve this? Thank you.
