OK, thank you. The problem is my vim's config. My vim will remove trailing space automatically.On Tue, Jun 21, 2016 at 12:23 AM, James Hurst <ja...@pi...

luajit unable to find libraries

greenberet123

Hi guys,

Have a simple n00b luajit question. Im trying to load a library called libluasocket which is located in:

$ ls /home/sviyer/thrift/lib/lua/.libs/
libluabitwise.a     libluabitwise.so.0.0.0  libluabpack.so.0       liblualongnumber.lai       libluasocket.la
libluabitwise.la    libluabpack.a           libluabpack.so.0.0.0   liblualongnumber.so        libluasocket.lai
libluabitwise.lai   libluabpack.la          libluabpack.so.0.0.0T  liblualongnumber.so.0      libluasocket.so
libluabitwise.so    libluabpack.lai         liblualongnumber.a     liblualongnumber.so.0.0.0  libluasocket.so.0
libluabitwise.so.0  libluabpack.so          liblualongnumber.la    libluasocket.a             libluasocket.so.0.0.0

I have added this path to package.cpath. Now when I try to use it ..

print(package.cpath)
require('libluasocket')


print("mouse")

The output is

$ luajit test.lua
/home/sviyer/.luarocks/lib/lua/5.1/?.so;/home/sviyer/torch/install/lib/lua/5.1/?.so;./?.so;/usr/local/lib/lua/5.1/?.so;/usr/local/lib/lua/5.1/loadall.so;/home/sviyer/thrift/lib/lua/.libs/?.so
luajit: attempt to index a nil value
stack traceback:
        [C]: at 0x7efc4048aba0
        [C]: in function 'require'
        test.lua:3: in main chunk

However, this works when I only use lua instead of luajit.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks a lot!
