Hello,
suppose having a custom DLL (actualy a Lua module) in:
d:\Lukas\Lua\54\WinCon.dll
How exactly should I alter the path specification so LMTX be able to load
WinCon.dll?
My trials - without success so far - are:
1. Alter LUA_CPATH before running Ctx, so something like:
---- (command line)
set LUA_CPATH=d:\Lukas\Lua\54\?.dll;%LUA_CPATH%
context.exe test.tex ...
----
2. Alter LUAINPUTS before running Ctx, so something like:
---- (command line)
set LUAINPUTS=%LUAINPUTS%;d:\Lukas\Lua\54\?.dll;%LUA_CPATH%
context.exe test.tex ...
----
3. Changing the path at runtime, so something like:
---- test.tex
\startluacode
package.cpath = package.cpath .. ";d:/Lukas/Lua/54/?.dll"
require "MyLib"
\stopluacode
----
But I'm still getting errors like:
"
...
token call, execute:
...TX/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/mkiv/l-sandbox.lua:180: module
'WinCon' not found:
no field package.preload['WinCon']
no file 'd:\Lukas\Lua\WinCon.lua'
no file 'd:\Lukas\Common\Statics\WinCon.lua'
no file 'd:\Lukas\Lua\3rdParty\WinCon.lua'
no file 'd:\Lukas\Lua\3rdParty\stdlib\modules\WinCon.lua'
no file 'd:\Lukas\Lua\3rdParty\LuaXML\WinCon.lua'
no file 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Lua\5.1\lua\WinCon.luac'
no file 'd:\Lukas\Lua\Geom'
...
"
Surprisingly, loader tries to locate a *.lua* only, whilst here I nedd to load
a .dll;
and in genereal case, .lua, .luac and .dll may be required.
So - how to specify the path correctly, be it on the command line or within a
.tex (LMTX run-time)?
Best regards,
Lukas
