Re: LuaCoCo+Lua 5.3.x

"Lua 5.1 (alpha) + LuaJIT 1.0.3.": how does that work? Mixed PUC Lua and LuaJIT code base?

According to LuaJIT docs, the LuaJIT VM is fully resumable. I guess
the Coco features were integrated around the introduction of LuaJIT 2.
A viable solution might be patching Lua 5.1.5 with LuaCoco and/or use
LuaJIT 2.

Slightly OT, I'm curious about the OP's configuration. "Lua 5.1
(alpha) + LuaJIT 1.0.3.": how does that work? Mixed PUC Lua and LuaJIT
code base?

Cheers!
