Re: Proxy DLL for Lua 5.1; can't get it to work with statically linked liblua

As I describe in my response to Jerome, I tried that, but got "The
procedure entry point lua.exe.luaL_argerror could not be located in
the dynamic link library lua51.dll." (I tried with and without the
extension.)

Thank you for the script; I tried the DLL that was generated, but got
exactly the same error as above when I tried then to load a module
linked to that proxy: "The procedure entry point lua.exe.luaL_argerror
could not be located in the dynamic link library lua51.dll."

Do you have a proxy library compiled against lua.exe that I can test
with (probably off-list)? Thank you.

Paul.
