We currently don't allow Lua to load dynamic libraries. vxWorks does support dynamic loading, but we haven't had a need to use it, so we haven't written it. However, it may be beneficial for teams to distribute precompiled versions of Lua modules, so we may want to support this.
Apparently, vxWorks salutes the dlfcn.h header, so it should just be as easy as defining LUA_DL_DLOPEN in the luaconf.h file. However, this is an important area where I want to carefully test the workflow and write good documentation for teams.
