newbie question

["xenarcher" <nickl@...>]

I'm just starting to learn Lua and I have what seems to be a very 
simple problem. I'm trying to load a file with a Lua function in it 
and call the function from C code.

Here's my C function:


// Main program function
//
void main()
{
	lua_State *lua_state;
	int rc;

	// create lua state object
	lua_state = lua_open();

	// load lua code
	rc = luaL_loadfile(lua_state, "test.lua");
	if (rc) {
		goto main_deinit;
	}

	// call "main" lua function
	lua_getglobal(lua_state, "main");
	lua_call(lua_state, 0, 0);

main_deinit:

	// de-initialize lua state object
	lua_close(lua_state);
}


In the file, "test.lua", I have the following:


function main ()
	i = 0
	print(i)
end


Now when I run the C program, it looks like the lua_call() function 
doesn't do anything since the previous lua_getglobal() doesn't 
actually find the "main" function. Am I doing something wrong here?
