wxlua-users Mailing List for wxLua

Ok, I hacked away a bit, it's not pretty, but I got it to work in MSW.
I downloaded the sources for luasocket-2.0.tar.gz. Compiled it using
MSVC 2005 express using the sln file, I had to edit the *.vcproj to
point to wxLua/module/lua/include for the include path to lua.h.
I edited mime.h/c and added
MIME_API int luaopen_mime(lua_State *L);
MIME_API int luaopen_mime(lua_State *L) {
 return luaopen_mime_core(L);
}
edited socket.h/c and added
LUASOCKET_API int luaopen_socket(lua_State *L);
LUASOCKET_API int luaopen_socket(lua_State *L) {
 return luaopen_socket_core(L);
}
*** I don't know why I have to do that?
I then created a dir called "socket" and "mime" in the
luasocket-2.0/src dir and copied (not moved) all the lua files into
them. I moved src/mime.dll to src/mime/core.dll and src/socket.dll to
src/socket/core.dll. You HAVE TO either delete src/socket.dll and
src/mime.dll or get rid of them somehow, otherwise require tries to
load them instead of mime.lua and socket.lua and they have to both be
called core.dll.
src/mime.lua -- these two are already there, leave others too
src/socket.lua
src/mime/core.dll
src/socket/core.dll
src/socket/ftp.lua
src/socket/http.lua
src/socket/smtp.lua
src/socket/socket.lua
src/socket/tp.lua
src/socket/url.lua
I edited src/compat/compat5.1r4/compat5.1.lua to have this
package.cpath =3D os.getenv("LUA_CPATH") or
 "./?.dll;" ..
instead of ?.so for unix systems. I could have just used the
environment variables, but after some debugging about why it couldn't
find the libs I just left it the way I had it.
It works! Both using the lua.exe program and wxlua.exe. I ran the
programs from the luasocket-2.0/src dir like this
../../wxLua/bin/wxlua.exe wxlua_socket.lua (the name I gave your program)
(note also I'm using cygwin in Windows so I use forward slashes)
I made some tweaks to wxLua.exe to make it handle the errors a little bette=
r.
I'm not sure that this helps at all since I really just trashed
things, but the problem you have is with the paths not being right and
it not being able to find either the lua or dll files for the module's
require.
To help debug things change src/compat/compat5.1r4/compat5.1.lua
At the top add the "print" to this list of functions
local print, assert, error, getfenv, ipairs, loadfile, loadlib, pairs,
setfenv, setmetatable, type =3D print, assert, error, getfenv, ipairs,
loadfile, loadlib, pairs, setfenv, setmetatable, type
then later on add some "print" statements
local function search (path, name)
...
 print("search ", c)
local function loader_C (name)
 print("loader_C ", name)
local function loader_Lua (name)
 print("loader_Lua ", name)
and whatever else seems necessary to help you understand why it cannot
find what it's looking for.
Good luck,
 John Labenski

Well, it seems a little closer. I've tried it in linux, I got the
luasocket source compiled it, but I had to make some changes, but it
still doesn't even work using the lua executable.
luasocket.h & luasocket.c I added
LUASOCKET_API int luaopen_socket(lua_State *L);
LUASOCKET_API int luaopen_socket(lua_State *L) {
 return luaopen_socket_core(L);
}
since otherwise I got this error when just running it in lua
../../wxLua/bin/lua:
.../wxLua/luasocket-2.0/src/compat-5.1r4/compat-5.1.lua:125: error
loading package `socket' (./socket.so: undefined symbol:
luaopen_socket)
I tried changing the require code to
local http =3D require("socket")
to not get the error
../../wxLua/bin/lua:
.../wxLua/luasocket-2.0/src/compat-5.1r4/compat-5.1.lua:171: package
`socket.http' not found
but now I get this error, since it didn't load the http module.
../../wxLua/bin/lua: wxlua_test.lua:9: attempt to call field `request'
(a nil value)
I'm a little unfamiliar with the module way of doing things, but
something not right about the luasocket lib or my paths or...
something. I'm a little suspicious since it was looking for a function
called luaopen_socket which didn't even exist, so I think there may be
other problems in the luasocket module.
It would be nice to get this working in wxLua, but if I can't even get
it to work using lua, I won't be able to make any progress. I'll try
tomorrow in MSW.

 John Labenski

John,
Sorry, my bad english, I'm brazilian.
I'm compiling wxlua myself.
I'am using the luasocket 2.0 binary files on win32 (win98).
> I see you load compat-5.1.lua, wxLua is based on 5.0.2, has luasocket
> been compiled for 5.1?
No, luasocket was been compiled for 5.0.2, but under compat-5.1 package 
model.
I download your wxLua installer e try ...
the script is:
---
dofile([[D:\lua\lua55円.0\bin\compat-5.1.lua]] )
local http = require("socket.http")
print(http.request)
b, c, h = http.request("http://www.lua.org") print(b,c,h)
---
I get this message with lua.exe and wxlua.exe
---
wxLua: Error while running chunk
compat-5.1.lua:130: error loading package `socket.core' (One of the 
library files needed to run this application cannot be found.
)
---
Now I put lua50.dll (luasocket dependencie ) in /bin, and get this.
----
C:\App\wxLua\test\socket>C:\App\wxLua\bin\lua.exe http1.lua
function: 00AC4780
C:\APP\WXLUA\BIN\LUA.EXE: not enough memory
stack traceback:
	[C]: in function `request'

Note the module was loaded and http.request is a function.

The error dialog you get (IIRC) is a generic MSVC dialog saying that
someone is trying to write past the end of some allocated memory.
Did you compile wxLua and luasocket yourself?
What wxLua are you using, the cvs version from sourceforge or the original?
Can you run it in a debugger?
Do you get the same error for other functions in luasocket or just http.req=
uest?
I see you load compat-5.1.lua, wxLua is based on 5.0.2, has luasocket
been compiled for 5.1?
If you don't compile it yourself you may want to try this newer version out=
.
http://wxlua.sourceforge.net/wxLua-2.6.2.1-setup.exe
I hope my questions can give you some ideas of how to solve this.
Unfortunately the text in the dialog isn't enough to say anything
definitively.

Hello,
I'm using wxlua for many years.
I have a problem on using luasocket 2.0.
Can I load a lua dll module with require?
---- script
dofile([[D:\lua\lua55円.0\bin\compat-5.1.lua]] )
local http = require("socket.http")
b, c, h = http.request("http://www.lua.org") print(b,c,h)
----
With lua.exe it's ok.
But with wxlua.exe I get errors.
What is wrong?

nice !
I've added it to the screenshot page.
I won't have time to take screenshots up to the end of this week... if 
you want to take some others, just add them to the website/screenshots 
folder adding a "_gtk2.png" or "_win.png" prefix...

it looks like a good idea, sure !

I'm working on the wxLua autopackage and also on Italian translation of 
autopackage :)
Last I'm also working to add msvc8prj to bakefile.
But these are not crucial things and if they reveal to take too long I 
would be favourable to a release first...

Hi,
I modified wxluacan a bit, it has now two types of luascript objects.
One that is fast, since it only load the script once and adds all 
drawing as childs objects to a group.
And the other use wxlua to draw the object again and again.
Here is a screenshot:
http://www.xs4all.nl/~kholwerd/tmp/wxluacan.png
I think it can be added like this?
I am thinking to wire a tutorial based on this sample, would that be a 
good idea?
Would something be missing still?

editor.wx.lua is the editor for apps/wxlua. The apps/wxluaedit is
strictly C++ and uses the wxstedit as the editor with no lua code at
all.
I've also changed this to add a new page for both as well.

That was very useful !
I've copied also some other code to make it warn the user about 
eventually-unloadable files and committed it.
However there is still another problem I see: unlike wxlua, wxluaedit 
always opens the user-chosen files on the same notebook page.
I searched the code which does this but I couldn't found it by sure. Is 
it the fileLoad() function in the editor.wx.lua file ?
In any case I think it would be nice to have the File->Open menuitem of 
wxLuaEdit to open files in new notebook pages.

Thanks for all your work Francesco! I've added a screenshot for
wxLuaEdit in GTK2 running scribble. I think that a few different
images of different programs would be nice. Maybe the wxlua app in
windows running some wxlua program and the wxluacan sample.

Fixed, hopefully. You can now have
%define __WIN32__ 1
so that you can assign arbitrary values to %defines.

You have to add files to the wxSTEditorNotebook not to the editor, add
the first file to the editor and remaining ones to the notebook. See
the wxstedit sample.

Opps, sorry. I added all the defines __WIN32__, __WXGTK__, and what
not. Unfortunately some of them are
#define __WXGTK__ 1
but I think your problem is that others are only
#define __WIN32__ // no value
I'll see what I can do to fix it ASAP. In the meantime you can rem out
those lines in wx_define.cpp, but don't commit it since I'll try to
fix it properly.

All done. I get errors chainging permissions for files not owned by
me, but I think everything is rw.

Removed.

Hi,
I get this now.
I think the defines are not double, and therefore generate errors?
If i e.g replace the firs __WIN32__ with 1.0 that one is oke.
Is it only VC6 with those errors?

Hi John,
 I've created a little patch for wxLuaEdit to make it possible to 
call it from command line with .lua files to open directly in the editor.
This patch will make life a lot easier for win32 and also unix users IMO.
Can I apply it ?
Francesco
PS: the patch works ok when you specify zero or one file in the command 
line. When you specify two or more, wxLuaEditor opens only the last.
This is not a bug with my patch but seems something scintilla-related: I 
get the same behaviour using the File->Open cmd. I.e. the new files I 
load do not go as additional items in the "Files" splitterwnd but rather 
replace the already-open file.
Is it because of wxCVS ?
I'm going to do a cvs update and recompile...

I've updated the support page together with the doc page and download page.
The website is now fairly complete. We should only decide which sample 
to use for wxLua screenshots...
Francesco

Hi John,
 there was a little 'bug' in updatesite.sh since it did not reset 
appropriately the permissions of the DOC folder. So I'm now getting ton 
of error message when running that script because DOCS files have RW 
permissions only for your user.
Can you rerun that script ?
Thanks,
Francesco
PS: I think that /home/groups/w/wx/wxlua/checkout_wxlua_website script 
can be removed now...

Thanks a lot John, i have obviously have bin reading in the wrong 
locations somehow :-(
I toke as an example the functions called in C++ like in the wrappings, 
but calling functions in lua seems to be different.
But no i have a problem compiling wx_define.cpp ( line 107 syntax error 
','), regenerated the bindings, but it does not help.
Will look further tomorrow, its is already far to late ;-)
regards,
Klaas

Fixed, I think, I added a printf for testing (like your wxLogDebug)
and it shows 0 or 1 depending where the mouse is.

It kills lua if running, calling lua_error, see wxLuaState::terror.
The pushed functions and callbacks continue to work however, but since
you're running code from C, I'm not sure what happens either.
lua_error does a long_jmp, but to where I dunno...

I'm committing the changes now.

Hi John,
After hours of searching around what i possibly do wrong i give up.
It is the next peace of code in canlua.cpp
It call the hit function in the script incircles.lua, and i tested 
that it does ( after loading it from the menu in the sample of course ).
But somehow the boolean return result is totally wrong.
I went as far as calling a lua function which adds two numbers, and 
return that number, and it has the same behaviour.
Meaning that at least the first time the result is at number 9 on the 
returned stack?? It even tells there are 9 result, while i think there 
is only one.
With lst.GetBooleanType(0) the application just stops, there is an error 
generated in the check for the boolean type, but where that error end up 
is not clear to me.
Do you have any idea what i am doing wrong?
It would be nice if the sample actually worked before the first release :-(
Thanks for some help if you can find the time.
Thanks also for the nice changes, i hope to once understand them all :-)

Hi,
I think we should add a link to this, for subscribing to the lists.
http://sourceforge.net/mail/?group_id=140042
Someone one the wxusers list did have trouble finding it.
And i agree it is not so obvious to click on the word "mail" somewhere 
to get there.
Like in the support page.

Well, sure, if it's easy to do, why not? I usually go for the minimal
approach, I got a lot on my plate right now.
