README for slua === Requires === === Compile === * mkdir build * cd build for Release build: * cmake .. -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release for Debug build: * cmake .. -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug * make === Install === * make install === Patches to lua/src === * Emergency Garbage Collector: http://lua-users.org/wiki/EmergencyGarbageCollector * LuaCoco-1.1.6: http://luajit.org/coco.html + (x86_64 support added) * a few hooks where added to support static compiled functions. === Programs === * slua: This command can be used to run Lua script. It doesn't have JIT support! * sluac: This command compiles Lua scripts into C code which calls lua vm ops functions. * slua-compiler: This is a bash script that wraps sluac to compile Lua scripts into standalone executables or loadable modules. === Libraries === -- static & dynamic libraries for linking into host app. * libslua_static.a & libslua.so -- Used for compling Lua scripts to standalone executables. * liblua_main.a === Using slua === 'sluac' alone can only compile Lua scripts to Lua bytecode or C code. A wrapper script called 'slua-compiler' is provided that wraps 'sluac' and gcc. Compile standalone Lua script: slua-compiler script.lua outputs: ./script Compile Lua script as a module: slua-compiler -lua-module script.lua outputs: ./script.so
