// LuaState.h

// Declares the cLuaState class representing the wrapper over lua_State *, provides associated helper functions

/*
The contained lua_State can be either owned or attached.
Owned lua_State is created by calling Create() and the cLuaState automatically closes the state
Or, lua_State can be attached by calling Attach(), the cLuaState doesn't close such a state
Attaching a state will automatically close an owned state.

Calling a Lua function is done by pushing the function, either by PushFunction() or PushFunctionFromRegistry(),
then pushing the arguments (PushString(), PushNumber(), PushUserData() etc.) and finally
executing CallFunction(). cLuaState automatically keeps track of the number of arguments and the name of the
function (for logging purposes), which makes the call less error-prone.
