LuaParse. C# parser for World of Warcraft saved variable files

August 30, 2009

It is a common task for developers creating add-ons for World of Warcraft to process lua files on the server side. YouPVP, for example, receives lua files generated by an add-on and parses battlegrounds data into the database. Since I was building a website on an asp.net platform, I needed lua parser in C#. Unfortunately, after spending some time on the internet, I couldn’t find any .net solutions that would work for me, so I wrote my own. If you need to parse warcraft lua files in a .net environment, I hope you will find my LuaParse class to be useful.
