[Lua] Detect if Lua is unlocked

[lordaplala]

Hello guys !

Using lua in script/addon, is it somehow possible to test if we can actually call protected functions?
I'm using an Lua unlocker tool and would like to detect if it is running (or detect the error and prevent it from display).

Something like this :

if canUse("castSpellByName") then
 return true
else
 return false
end

Thank you!

Hi uzzy13u

What i want to achieve here is detecting if /run Jump() works using code instead of manual test.
I tried to call it inside a pcall() but it doesn't seem to be the solution since wow is blocking here, not lua.

I'm using this tool to disable protection : Lua Unlocker (1.12.1, 2.4.3 & 3.3.5a) (Lua Unlocker (1.12.1, 2.4.3 & 3.3.5a))

Maybe.. it could be modified to inject a global lua variable into wow so i can then test it inside my lua script. I don't have any idea about how to achieve this or even if it possible. Any advise / trick appreciated

Leaving this here incase someone will need.

Blizzard has simple function for this:

if ( issecure() ) then DoStuff() end

if issecure returns true you can always use any lua function, including ones that require hardware event from user (on 3.3.5a at least).
