Re: Building Pluto on Windows

[Stefan Reich <stefan.reich.maker.of.eye@...>]

Thanks very much for the answer. Can I bother you one more time?

I'm doing this:

R:\coding\Lua\pluto-2.4>c:\mingw\bin\gcc -shared -L. -o pluto.dll
-llua5.1 pluto.c pdep.c lzio.c

lua5.1.lib and lua5.1.dll are in the current dir. It gives me a load
of unresolved references:

[...]
C:\Users\doc\AppData\Local\Temp\cccTXc2I.o:pluto.c:(.text+0x358c):
undefined reference to `luaL_checktype'
C:\Users\doc\AppData\Local\Temp\cccTXc2I.o:pluto.c:(.text+0x35f7):
undefined reference to `luaL_openlib'
C:\Users\doc\AppData\Local\Temp\ccgYa5Qf.o:pdep.c:(.text+0x536):
undefined reference to `lua_pushlstring'
C:\Users\doc\AppData\Local\Temp\ccgYa5Qf.o:pdep.c:(.text+0x557):
undefined reference to `lua_settop'

Shouldn't these be found in lua5.1.dll...?
