Description

I have an error with ofDragInfo when I try to make Lua bindings in ofxLua:

No operand found that accepts an operand of type std::vector<std::string,std::allocator<std::string>> on the right.

If I replace of::filesystem::path with std::string at line 111 in ofEvents.h it works (maybe better to replace std::string with of::filesystem::path instead?):

//-----------------------------------------------
class ofDragInfo {
public:
	std::vector<of::filesystem::path> files;
	glm::vec2 position;
};
//-----------------------------------------------
class ofDragInfo {
public:
	std::vector<std::string> files;
	glm::vec2 position;
};

Start with ofEvents.h at line 111 and reproduce the ofDragInfo binding error in ofxLua. Compare the std::string and of::filesystem::path declarations, then verify that the chosen change removes the reported operand error without losing the intended files representation.
