Importing Lua programming language

06.04.25

In SUSE linux install following packages:
lua
lua-devel
or we can download latest Lua version from
http://www.lua.org/

Write simple source file test.cpp, which open and close Lua virtual machine:

extern "C" 
{
 #include <lua.h>
 #include <lualib.h>
 #include <lauxlib.h>
}



int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{	
	// Open Lua virtual machine
	lua_State* luaVM = lua_open();
	if (NULL == luaVM)
	{
		cout << "Error Initializing lua\n" << endl;
		return;
	}
	cout << "Lua is inicialized" << endl;
	// Close Lua virtual machine
	lua_close(luaVM);
	return 0;
}

Now we add the Lua library to the makefile
LOADLIBES = -lauxlib -llua -llualib -ldl
or compile
g++ -o test  test.cpp -L/usr/lib -lauxlib -llua -llualib -ldl
