Restricted tables
Only restricted tables are accessible within the restricted environment -- essentially, the real table instances are kept local to prevent unrestricted access to variables within the restricted environment. Most table functions within the restricted environment have been replaced by restricted table-aware versions, with the exception of the gsub function (use the restricted table-aware rtgsub instead of table lookup functionality is desired).
The following table-related functions are usable inside the restricted environment:
| Restricted Table Library | ||||||
| rtable.next | rtable.pairs | rtable.ipairs | rtable.unpack | rtable.newtable | rtable.maxn | rtable.insert |
| rtable.remove | rtable.sort | rtable.concat | rtable.wipe | rtable.type | rtable.rtgsub | |
| Table Library (restricted-table aware) | ||||||
| table.maxn | table.insert | table.remove | table.sort | table.concat | table.wipe | table.new |
| Global API | ||||||
| newtable | pairs | ipairs | next | unpack | wipe | tinsert |
| tremove | type | rtgsub | ||||
Note that as the restricted environment doesn't contain proper function references, table.sort's second argument (comparison function) may not be used from within the restricted environment.
Other functions
The math and string standard library tables are provided in their entirety. The following table lists additional global functions that are also available in the restricted environment
| select | tonumber | tostring | format | gmatch | gsub | strbyte | strchar | strconcat | strfind | |
| strjoin | strlen | strlower | strmatch | strrep | strrev | strsplit | strsub | strtrim | strupper | abs |
| acos | asin | atan | atan2 | ceil | cos | deg | exp | floor | frexp | ldexp |
| log | log10 | max | min | mod | rad | random | sin | tan |
Frame handle methods
Real frame userdata values may not exists within the restricted environment; instead, it the restricted environment may contain frame references (introduced via the :SetFrameRef("name", frame) method). A limited subset of the widget API can be invoked upon those references; only methods marked with a star may be called on references to non-protected frames.
| * | Method | Purpose |

| Accessor methods | ||
| * | handle:GetName() | Returns frame name. |
| * | handle:GetObjectType() | Returns widget type. |
| * | handle:IsObjectType("widgetType") | Returns 1 if the frame is of the specified widget type. |
| * | handle:IsProtected() | Returns 1 if the frame is protected. |
| handle:GetID() | Returns the ID value associated with the frame. | |
| handle:IsShown() | Returns 1 if the frame is shown (even if its ancestors are not). | |
| handle:IsVisible() | Returns 1 if the frame is visible (i.e. it and all its ancestors are shown). | |

| handle:GetAttribute("name") | Returns the value of an attribute; name must not begin with an underscore. | |
| handle:GetFrameRef("name") | Retrieve a restricted handle to a frame set by SetFrameRef(). | |

| handle:GetMousePosition() | Returns mouse position relative to the frame, where (0,0) is the bottom left corner. | |

Control methods
Additional methods are available as part of the control table; allowing functionality somewhat resembling proper functions within the protected environment.
- control:CallMethod("methodName", ...)
- insecurely calls methodName method of the restricted environment's owner.
- control:Run("body", ...)
- executes Lua code in body with the provided arguments; self is the handle of the environment's owner.
- control:RunFor(handle, "body", ...)
- executes Lua code in body with the provided arguments; self is the argument value.
- control:RunAttribute("snippetAttr", ...)
- executes the method contained in the snippetAttr attribute of the restricted environment owner with self, ... as arguments.
- control:ChildUpdate("snippetid", message)
- executes the contents of "_childupdate-snippetid" (or, if that attribute is nil/false, "_childupdate"), on all protected children (and children of children) of the restricted environment owner with (self, scriptid, message) arguments.
