Re: is it possible to obtain registed classes and functions list of a lua state?

Using luabind 0.9, you can iterate methods and properties of a class.  You can get it from github (http://github.com/luabind/luabind); there probably will be an official release before the year ends.

In your C++ code, you need to do call this after luabind::open :
luabind::bind_class_info(lua_State* L)

Here's what you can do in Lua:

c = class_info(Timeval())
print(c.name)
-- Timeval
for k,v in pairs(c.attributes) do print(k,v) end
-- 1    number
-- 2    usec
---3    sec

-- Here is the class_info for class_info
c = class_info(class_info(Timeval()))
print(c.name)
-- class_info_data
for k,v in pairs(c.attributes) do print(k,v) end
-- 1    attributes
-- 2    name
-- 3    methods
for k,v in pairs(c.methods) do print(k,v) end


What's missing is the ability to know what the list of actual luabinded (luabound?) classes are -- you need to know a priori.   That would be make sense to add... I'll look at generating a patch to do that.
