inspect.lua doesn't work

[chobie]

minimal reproduce code is here.

function inspect(options)
    a = options or {}
    print(type(a))
end

function inspect2(options)
    options = options or {}
    print(type(options))
end
inspect(nil)
inspect2(nil)

# glua
macbook% ../bin/glua spec.lua
table
nil

# lua
macbook% lua-5.1 spec.lua
table
table

@chobie , Thank you for reporting this.
I've fixed the bug in commit ca03869.
Could you test it?

[chobie]

Thanks. it seems good for above problem. but also I've found another issue related this.

function inspect(options)
    a = options or setmetatable({}, {__mode = "test"})
    print(type(a))
end

function inspect2(options)
    options = options or setmetatable({}, {__mode = "test"})
    print(type(options))
end

inspect(nil)
inspect2(nil)

Hmm, I've fixed it again in fd7274c.
Could you test it again?

[chobie]

Thanks, but more problems appeared.

• [G]: error parsing regexp: trailing backslash at end of expression: ``

str = "hello"
str:gsub("\\", "\\\\")

I guess inspect.lua will work fine when this problem solved.

[yuin]

Oh, I've fixed it in 67b4bef.
Could you test it once again?

[chobie]

Thank you so much! It works fine :)
