Embedding Lua in C++

Question

I\'ve been trying to embed lua in a c++ application but to no avail since the compiler complains about \"lua_open\".I\'m using Lua 5.2.

I found alot of articles clai

Answer 1

Indeed, the lua_open function is not mentioned in the lua 5.2 reference manual

A lua_State is constructed with lua_newstate, and you can use luaL_newstate from lauxlib.h

A faster way to get the answers to such question is to look into the Lua 5.2 source code (which I just did).
