Subject: exception when calling lua with iup
Hi folks!
This error originaly occurs in a big application, but to get a focus on
in, I reproduced it in a small environment.
Im using VisualStudio (VisualC++ 6.0). I created a standard dialog
application with a text field and a button to call lua with the text.
This is the relevant code:
void CLuaDialogDlg::OnDo()
{
lua_State *L = lua_open(); /* create state */
if (L == NULL)
{
MessageBox("cannot create state: not enough memory");
return;
}
luaL_openlibs(L);
lua_register(L,"print",print);
CString code;
GetDlgItemText(IDC_LUACODE,code);
int status=luaL_dostring(L,code);
if (status&& !lua_isnil(L, -1))
{
const char *msg = lua_tostring(L, -1);
if (msg == NULL) msg = "(error object is not a string)";
MessageBox(msg);
lua_pop(L, 1);
}
lua_close(L);
}
This works fine for a lot of lua scripts. After fiddling the
package.cpath and package.path (by adding a package.cpath="... lot of
entries..." to the script) to point to my LuaForWindows installation I
can also use lfs and other libs with no problems.
The trouble begins, when I try to use iuplua. The following code
require"iuplua"
iup.Alarm('TITLE','TEXT','OK')
shows the alarm, but then get a "unhandled exception" inside the
lua_close. Interesting, even a
require"iuplua"
with no further code causes the crash.
The stacktrack shows up like this:

After setting a breakpoint into CrtMessageWindow I could fetch the
message
"Debug Assertion Failed!
Program: D:\MYPROJECTS\LuaDialog2\LuaDialog\Debug\LuaDialog.exe
File: dbgheap.c
Line: 1044
Expression: _CrtIsValidHeapPointer(pUserData)
So this looks to me, as if free is called with an invalid pointer, but
there must be more memory corrupted, because the error message newer
gets displayed.
Im using lua-5.1.4 from the source-tar statically linked, every other
lib or dll is loaded via package from LuaForWindows_v5.1.4-30
Can you give me any helpfull hints, how to fix (or avoid) the problem?
Regards
