Question: How to create getters and setters for sub-tables

[dheerajshenoy]

Thanks for this great library!

Sorry if the question doesn't make any sense, I just don't know how to explain it in a sentence. Let's say I have a table table with the sub-tables ui and opt. I want to have getter/setter for members of opt e.g: table.opt.terminal = "value" and print(table.opt.terminal). I have defined the sol::state in a class and all the lua API definitions should reside in this class.

How can I get the following behavior

class Table {

public:
   void LuaAPI() noexcept;

private:
   sol::state lua;
};

void Table::LuaAPI() noexcept {
  sol::table table = lua.create_named["table"]
  table.new_usertype<Table>("table");
  
  table["opt"] = this;
  
  table["opt"]["terminal"] = sol::property(&Table::Getter, &Table::Setter);
  
  table["ui"]... // UI table with members
}
