As of version 2.0, LuaInterface doesn't use a
standard Lua DLL anyway. Instead its "lua51.dll" is a DLL containing both Lua and some C++/CLI code to make the Lua API available from C# code. This lua51.dll doesn't export any native symbols; it's only for use by LuaInterface. So it's not possible to use LuaInterface with another Lua DLL or to link Lua extension modules against the lua51.dll provided and used by LuaInterface. This makes your point irrelevant.

That is the reason I used 1.5.3 instead of 2.0. I have
a number of applications that make use of luasocket
and my own xyssl bindings and need a GUI frontend
and/or Windows service interface. The 2.0 version is
completely useless for me as it is a pure Lua
engine(managed C++) for .NET and cannot make use of
any of the C modules(luasocket, lpeg).




I agree completely!
