Compiling bitlib on Mac OS X

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next] [Date Index] [Thread Index]


Hello all. I'm brand new to Lua. I read the (first edition) Programming in Lua a while back, but hadn't found the time to play with the language much. This weekend though, I ran into a problem my good friend Ruby just wasn't fast enough to effectively solve. That got me to give Lua a go. I have a working solution now, but it's still a little slow. I'm pretty sure the reason is that I needed bit operations and I just used LuaBit because it was easy to get working. I've found the bitlib though and would like to try it. I tried to figure it out, but I'm just no good at this kind of thing. I couldn't figure out how to add a compiled bitlib to my Lua build. Could someone give me some hints?
I'm on Mac OS X and have compiled Lua 5.1. I need to know:
1. How do I compile bitlib so Lua will be able to load it?
2. How to load that library once I have made it that far?
Thanks in advance for any tips.
