Re: Creating Lua for WireShark - Need a Shared Object

[Russell Haley <russ.haley@...>]

Sorry for the top post. I already refactored that. I had to remove one object from core and copy the libs objects from the 5.1 makefile. After that Wireshark still didn't work I did some more digging. A post on the wireshark forum indicated it's looking for a static lib, not a shared object. Both exist now, neither affect the configure step from wireshark. 

I really appreciate your help. However, tomorrow's my last day at that job so I probably won't get to finish it. I was trying to help out a friend before I leave.

Thanks Sean (and everyone)!

The makefile I sent assumed Lua 5.3. It's easily modified for Lua 5.1 (it
probaby won't need much changing except for the name of the resulting
library). Perhaps that's the issue?
