when I create a [lua] object in pd i get an error
I don't have any Mac OS X machines to test with, so it's probably a bug in the pdlua Makefile. I'll look at some other Makefiles to see what special voodoo OS X requires (I think the bug is that lua.pd_darwin should be able to see symbols in the pd executable, but can't for some reason).
hi claude, maybe pdlua is the problem, but I think I rather messed up the lua installation itself. I used fink to install the latest lua version (5.1) and lua-dev, which is probably not the same as luaGL??? is luaGL a part of lua, or is luaGL a standalone lua library with built in GL? i.e. do I have to compile lua with luaGL or only luaGL? and after I compiled lua (luaGL?) and pdlua, and added -lib lua to the pd startup, is that all I have to do to get your example patches working? or am I missing another step? marius.
Moreover, creating a [lua] object isn't supposed to work yet (it's intended to be used with -lib lua) - but I will add that feature soon.
ok, I suppose that is where the canvas_load error comes from.
Also, I just want to note that pdlua is very fresh/new/alpha, and will probably change incompatibly at various points until something vaguely useable emerges.
thanks so far! marius.
