LuaSQL and video implementation

[Gaspard Bébié-V. <gas...@gm...>]

Hi Christian,

Many thanks for your answer. Your software and work is amazing and I 
really like it.
I see there's a solution for connectivity between lua and sql : Luasql 
(http://www.keplerproject.org/luasql/manual.html)
However, you confirmed me that I should recompile and work within the 
source code in C to get it working.

I think I'll have to find a developper to make this because I'm not used 
to this language and I think I'll lose a lot of time while a 
professional would do it in a little time (I guess but not totaly sure :) )

May I ask you an other question.
The video isn't supported yet in Pipmak. I read somebody on the list 
offered to implement it but it seems no news have been given since. Did 
they give up or did I miss something?
Otherwise, I thought an easy way to get video within Pipmak would to get 
animated gifs working. I made a try but it didn't work. ut the solution 
might be easier to get working than with video as animated gifs are only 
pictures. What do you think about this idea?

Best regards,

Gaspard

> No network connectivity is provided by built-in functionality of Pipmak (partly because it is not provided by the Lua core libraries, and partly for sandboxing reasons). However, at least the first and third of these should be possible if you build the LuaSocket library (http://w3.impa.br/~diego/software/luasocket/) as a C module loadable by loadlib(). There is some information on that in http://pipmak.svn.sf.net/viewvc/pipmak/trunk/pipmak/extras/luaplugin/ and in old mailing list posts (http://search.gmane.org/?query=loadlib&group=gmane.games.devel.pipmak.*). However, there is no standard system in place yet for locating C modules for different platforms, so you'll have to come up with something on your own there. (I started work on a generic extension mechanism for both Lua and C extensions once, but it's unfinished.)
