compilation - How Do I Build Lua For Windows Using MinGW and MSYS? -


i have book called beginning lua programming suppose go on raw basics sort of leaving me stranded. here effort condense 3 pages:

quote:

the following environment variables recommended windows: util_dir=c:\program files\utility lua_dir=c:\program files\lua\5.1 lua_cpath=?.dll;%lua_dir%\?.dll lua_path=?.lua;%lua_dir%\?.lua util_dir variable identifies utility directory created in preceding section.

after this, there segment setting 'windows search path' lua. basically, tells me output of 'doskey /?' , 'path' , figure out myself. have no idea these do, how use them, , difference between them is.

i'm @ wits end. detailed explanation or link detailed blog/article or youtube video extremely appreciated!

there few ways lua working on machine. if want functional lua environment in hurry minimal fuss consider downloading 1 of precompiled lua binaries. common ones being lua windows , luabinaries.

building lua mingw isn't difficult:

  • first desired lua version here.
  • extract tar file containing lua's source somewhere. example, i'll assume extracted c:\lua

  • if have msys set up, can run make file environment. msys shell, can build lua follow commands:

    cd /c/lua make plat=mingw make install

  • you should find lua.exe , luac.exe somewhere in there after build completes. lua should ready use @ point.

the regular cmd.exe shell can work changes commands:

    cd lua     mingw32-make plat=mingw

the make install assumes *nix environment , doesn't work under normal windows cmd shell. in case can manually copy compiled files .\lua\src want or can run directly there if desired.
