Lua 5.2 support
Opened this issue · 6 comments
I think I already pointed you to this overview of changes in current work versions of Lua 5.2 but I will post it here again for later so it doesn't get lost ;)

Being up to date on Lua 5.2, I also know it's not released yet :)
Since work3, there have been work4, work5 and two alpha releases.
Yep, as I said, just wanted to open an issue to keep track of things.
Ah right.
Well I'm planning on trying 5.2 once it's properly released, I suspect that won't be very far away. I'll probably look into it then, and the link will be useful for most changes I suspect.
I wonder if the differences are so big that just using version() would be too messy, in which case I'd need to maintain a branch. I hope not.
Can't tell either. CorsixTH has a few directives to at least improve compatibility.

This is now leaving luad quite hard to to use as 5.1 is quite old :(
