Restricted tables[]
Only restricted tables are accessible within the restricted environment -- essentially, the real table instances are kept local to prevent unrestricted access to variables within the restricted environment. Most table functions within the restricted environment have been replaced by restricted table-aware versions, with the exception of the gsub function (use the restricted table-aware rtgsub instead of table lookup functionality is desired).
The following table-related functions are usable inside the restricted environment:
Restricted Table Library | ||||||
rtable.next | rtable.pairs | rtable.ipairs | rtable.unpack | rtable.newtable | rtable.maxn | rtable.insert |
rtable.remove | rtable.sort | rtable.concat | rtable.wipe | rtable.type | rtable.rtgsub | |
Table Library (restricted-table aware) | ||||||
table.maxn | table.insert | table.remove | table.sort | table.concat | table.wipe | table.new |
Global API | ||||||
newtable | pairs | ipairs | next | unpack | wipe | tinsert |
tremove | type | rtgsub |
Note that as the restricted environment doesn't contain proper function references, table.sort's second argument (comparison function) may not be used from within the restricted environment.
Other functions[]
The math and string standard library tables are provided in their entirety. The following table lists additional global functions that are also available in the restricted environment
select | tonumber | tostring | format | gmatch | gsub | strbyte | strchar | strconcat | strfind | |
strjoin | strlen | strlower | strmatch | strrep | strrev | strsplit | strsub | strtrim | strupper | abs |
acos | asin | atan | atan2 | ceil | cos | deg | exp | floor | frexp | ldexp |
log | log10 | max | min | mod | rad | random | sin | tan |
Frame handle methods[]
Real frame userdata values may not exists within the restricted environment; instead, it the restricted environment may contain frame references (introduced via the :SetFrameRef("name", frame) method). A limited subset of the widget API can be invoked upon those references; only methods marked with a star may be called on references to non-protected frames.
* | Method | Purpose |
---|---|---|
Accessor methods | ||
* | handle:GetName() | Returns frame name. |
* | handle:GetObjectType() | Returns widget type. |
* | handle:IsObjectType("widgetType") | Returns 1 if the frame is of the specified widget type. |
* | handle:IsProtected() | Returns 1 if the frame is protected. |
handle:GetID() | Returns the ID value associated with the frame. | |
handle:IsShown() | Returns 1 if the frame is shown (even if its ancestors are not). | |
handle:IsVisible() | Returns 1 if the frame is visible (i.e. it and all its ancestors are shown). | |
handle:GetWidth() | Returns frame width. | |

handle:GetRect() | Returns left, bottom, width, height specification of the frame's rectangle. | |

handle:GetEffectiveScale() | Returns effective frame scale (its own scale multiplied with that of all of its ancestors). | |
handle:GetFrameLevel() | Returns frame level. | |
handle:GetAttribute("name") | Returns the value of an attribute; name must not begin with an underscore. | |
handle:GetFrameRef("name") | Retrieve a restricted handle to a frame set by SetFrameRef(). | |

handle:GetMousePosition() | Returns mouse position relative to the frame, where (0,0) is the bottom left corner. | |
handle:IsUnderMouse(recursive) | Returns 1 if the frame, or, if recursive is true, any of the frame's children (and their children) are under the mouse. | |
handle:GetNumPoints() | Returns the number of anchoring points used by the frame. | |
handle:GetPoint(i) | Returns information about an anchoring point. | |
Setter methods | ||
handle:Show(skipAttr) | Shows a frame, and, unless skipAttr is true, set the "statehidden" attribute to nil. | |

Control methods[]
Additional methods are available as part of the control table; allowing functionality somewhat resembling proper functions within the protected environment.
- control:CallMethod("methodName", ...)
- insecurely calls methodName method of the restricted environment's owner.
- control:Run("body", ...)
- executes Lua code in body with the provided arguments; self is the handle of the environment's owner.
- control:RunFor(handle, "body", ...)
- executes Lua code in body with the provided arguments; self is the argument value.
- control:RunAttribute("snippetAttr", ...)
- executes the method contained in the snippetAttr attribute of the restricted environment owner with self, ... as arguments.
- control:ChildUpdate("snippetid", message)
- executes the contents of "_childupdate-snippetid" (or, if that attribute is nil/false, "_childupdate"), on all protected children (and children of children) of the restricted environment owner with (self, scriptid, message) arguments.
