// we can also call .NET methods using Lua-created .NET object
// such as:
LuaRuntime.Run("obj2 = clr.create(\"CSharpExampleProject.TestClass\")");
// Notice the ':' in the method invocation (call)...
LuaRuntime.Run("print(\"testint:\", obj2.testint, \"TestFunc:\", obj2:TestFunc())");
// the reason for this is because clr.create returns an advanced Userdata with
// metatables that wrap the .net object
//LuaRuntime.Run("obj2.ThisValueDoesntExistInDotNet = \"hey\"", t);
// the same value was printed twice, with different functions each time, proving its not actually there:
//Console.WriteLine(LuaRuntime.Run("return \"Sample attemption at creating an object: \" .. tostring(obj2.ThisValueDoesntExistInDotNet)", t));
// Console.WriteLine was used to show that you can print the returned value of executed code
//LuaRuntime.Run("print(obj2.ThisValueDoesntExistInDotNet)", t);
// You can also call functions defined in #Lua
