Lua build
Hi, I am completely new to dealing with lua and I have never really had to do a build before. I went and d/l'd the MinGW and installed that. I saw they had an auto install for it so I chose that and installed the MinGW minus the fortran and ada compilers...I have both the c compilers that came with it however.
Then I d/l'd the new lua 5.1.2 and I extracted that to the Dev directory I made. I then typed in the text file you have listed in your book on page 13 and saved that as a bat file. I used Notepad to type it up in. I had saved this file in dir c:\dev\lua-5.1.2\src .
I then typed build while still in this directory and I recieved several errors.
First one was: gcc -02 -Wall -c *.c 'gcc' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.
Second: ren lua.o lua.obj The system cannot find the file specified.
Third: ren luac.o luac.obj The system cannot find the file specified.
Fourth: ren print.o print.obj The system cannot find the file specified.
Fifth: gcc -shared -W1,--export-all-symbols -o lua5.1.dll *.o 'gcc' is not recognized as an internal or exdternal command, operable program or batch file.
Why am I getting all these errors when I typed in everything as it was in the book?
I followed every instruction to a T and still managed to have problems.
