Just wondering if anyone has had success with this particular combination?

I spent all day today trying to get it to work using a forked version of luabind that is suppose to support lua 5.2, but even when I manage to get everything to build, luabind crashes out at luabind:open. I'm pretty much at a dead end with it at this point, but figured a forum post might have a random chance of offering some insight.

For the complete record I'm using Boost 1.54, Lua 5.2.2, and everything is getting compiled with clang/LLVM 5.0 as x86 architecture.

I don't mean to be snarky, but you might want to try and learn the lua C api, I have a tutorial here in the forums.

I know that's the last thing you want to hear, and if you've already got lots of code written then you should try and fix the problem, but if you are starting a new codebase then consider dropping down to the core C api. It is a learn once, use anywhere there is Lua - solution, and it will virtually always outperform wrappers. Plus, it is not nearly as complicated as it initially appears.

Pertaining to your specific issue, if you post the debug info, including a stack trace and relevant code, then I will do my best to help you diagnose the problem.

Good luck!

Thanks Ecletocrat, I actually a did just that yesterday.ithink its probably a good thing anyways, as it will really just result in me keeping bindings simple and minimal.

Found the tutorial I wrote a while back, it will hopefully give you a leg up.
