dofile

Overview of the dofile function.

Function definition

function dofile(path: string): () 

Remarks

The function internally uses task.spawnto schedule the thread; this function will inherit errors from readfile, as internally the function is reused for simplicity's sake.

High-Level Overview:

Reads the contents at the file present at path, then calls loadfileand schedules the function to run on a new thread created from the current one.

Low-Level Overview:

pathis read from the luau heap, then loadfile is pushed onto the luau stack and it's arguments are prepared; once done, it will obtain task.spawnand call it, with the first argument being the function obtained from loadfile.
