The project is a menu management module written in Lua. It defines a MenuManager object that contains methods for managing menus in LuaRT desktop applications.
The project provides a modular and flexible way to manage menus in desktop applications. It allows you to add, uncheck, disable and enable child menus. Several menu managers can be used in one application.
- Create a folder called "ecluart" in your application.
- Copy the "mm.lua" file into this folder.

The menu manager (mm) can be loaded using the function require():
local mm = require("ecluart.mm") MenuManager() -> objectThe code above initializes a new instance of the menu manager object. It returns the newly created object.
MenuManager:add(menu: object, name: string) -> noneThis function adds a menu to the MenuManager object. It takes an object menu and a string name as parameters. It first checks if the menu is a valid child menu using the isValidChild function. If it is not a valid child menu or the name is not a string, the function returns early. Otherwise, it adds the menu to the children table using the name as the key.
MenuManager:uncheck() -> noneThe method iterates through child menus and unchecks them if they were previously checked. The function structure includes a loop to iterate over each child menu and a conditional check to determine if the menu is checked.
MenuManager:disable() -> noneThis method is responsible for disabling all child menus. It achieves this by iterating over each child menu and setting its enabled property to false.
MenuManager:enable() -> noneThis method, on the other hand, enables all child menus. It follows a similar approach as the disable method, but instead sets the enabled property to true.
