Re: Hamster: msg#00074

lang.lua.luacheia

Subject: Re: Hamster


Hamster is 100% pure Lua only, so bytecode won't be a problem.
But I don't want to go that way anyhow, so not an issue.

Btw, why do you need to recompile luasocket scripts? I do them cross-compiled darwin->win32 and (at least that) works all right. What are the issues?

Possibility if you don't want to abandon the GPL entirely (since if you release under a more permissive license in one place, you may as well everywhere): LuaCheia could include only the bytecode-compiled form of Hamster, and you could make an exception to the license for the Hamster sources which permits the compiled code to be used in any way. This is IIRC the approach taken for the glibc headers, and is somewhat (and necessarily) more permissive than the LGPL.

Hmmm, I don't thinks that's a very good solution... we are dealing with bytecode incompatible platform issues already... the socket module is an example for that... we needed to re-compile the Lua scripts on each platform (we had precompiled versions in the CVS to avoid needing luac & bin2c present during build)
