元表操作的一般流程

1.定義原始表

2.定義元表

3.定義元方法

4.設定元表

 1 str1 = {"I", "love", "lua"}
 2 
 3 myStr = {}
 4 function myStr.ToString(str)
 5     res = {}
 6     for i = 1, #str do
 7         res[i] = str[i]
 8     end
 9
 
     return table.concat(res, " ")
10 end
11 
12 myStr.__tostring = myStr.ToString
13 
14 setmetatable(str1, myStr)
15 
16 print(myStr.ToString(str1))
