Re: Overriding __concat behavior

I don't know if it's relevant but the member function "__concat" I
bind is called, luabind just tells me that it has the wrong prototype:
"No matching overload found, candidates:
std::string __concat(CBattery&,std::string,std::string);"

Is there any way to have an acceptable prototype (like void*,void*). I
will have a look on luabind::tostring implementation but I'm not very
confident about my abilities to do concat equivalent sadly :(

Thx for your answer
