Details
This function is useful for aliasing attributes to improve execution speed. Calling the setter function
execute more quickly than accessing the attribute directly.
Creating a setter function is only useful if it is going to be called several times. If you are not calling
the setter function several times, it is more efficient to access the attribute directly.
Example
setlevel = makesetter(smua.source, "levelv")
for v = 1, 10 do
setlevel(v)
end
Creates a setter function called setlevel.
Using setlevel() in the loop sets the value of smua.source.levelv, performing a source sweep.
