This moves the global Lua state from a static global in LuaTools.h to a member variable of the singleton
Core
. A public accessor,getLuaState
, is added toCore
to provide access. This accessor includes an assertion which guarantees that only threads that hold the core mutex attempt to acquire the core lua state. Passingtrue
togetLuaState
will bypass the assertion; this should only be used in code that is guaranteed to acquire aCoreSuspender
before trying to use the acquired Lua state.
