Erik, thank you for your answer.
Patrik, what I understand from "lua_State is fully thread safe" statement is more than one thread can work on the same lua_State simultaneously? Is this what you meant? If so, what are the synchronization primitives used by lua to support this feature?
Thanks.

Until Lua 5.0, the parser was not completely reentrant.
So it is more correct to say that a lua_State is fully thread safe
since Lua 5.1.
