RE: Thread problem with 5.0.2 -> 5.1

Actually, I’ve determined that lua_resume() is not failing but rather my script is aborting after a call is made to lua_yield(thread, 0) from a C-function invoked by the script.

Has something changed in the yield behavior for threads?

Subject: Thread problem with 5.0.2 -> 5.1

The following (simplified) sequence works under 5.0.2…

lua_State* thread = lua_newthread(L);

refKey = luaL_ref(L, LUA_REGISTRYINDEX);

lua_pcall(thread, 0, 0, 0);

lua_getglobal(thread, "main");

lua_pushnumber(thread, id);

lua_resume(thread, 1);

…but under 5.1 the call to lua_resume() fails, and lua_tostring(thread, -1) returns an inconsistent numerical value (in the range of 0 through 60).

Is there something about this sequence that is no longer valid under 5.1?

Thanks,

Brian
