[Wxlua-users] Re: wxLua on Linux

Hi all,

    I'm finally back from my last exams (crossing fingers waiting 
results  :))

yes, I get these, too.
Maybe someone with more wxLua knowledge could fix these...

I know what the problem is: bakefile 0.9 doesn't have good 
install/uninstall support.

John and all other wxLua admin: I made a patched version of Bakefile 
(0.2.0) with a lot of additional features which would fix, among others, 
also install and uninstall targets.
Should I upgrade wxLua bakefiles to 0.2.0, while we wait that my 
additional features (which I also submit to bakefile project as patches) 
are applied and official 0.2 is released ?

My bakefile 0.2.0 is available at:
  www.geocities.com/f18m_cpp217828/frm-bakefile.tar.gz

IIRC something like wxluasetup.h was supposed to be created and the 
WXLUASETUP_DIR & WXLUABINDLIB_DIR options should be used somewhere in 
bakefiles.
Anyway --enable-wxlua-app should work. I'll look into this.

I think it would be a little overkill create a wxlua-config script; 
wouldn't be better to create a wxlua.pc file for pkg-config, so that one 
could use

        pkg-config wxlua --libs

or

        pkg-config wxlua --cflags


?

I propose to use a pkg-config template file just because it's ultra easy 
to build one. Basically the wxlua.pc.in file would look as:

prefix=@prefix@
exec_prefix=@exec_prefix@
libdir=@libdir@
includedir=@includedir@

Name: @PACKAGE_NAME@
Description: wxWidgets lua wrappers
Version: @PACKAGE_VERSION@
Requires:
Libs: -L${libdir} -lwxlua
Cflags: -I${includedir}/lua


Just let me know...

PS: wxLua currently doesn't compile on my AMD64 linux box.
This is because in a lot of places some (int) casts are used to cast 
memory pointers. In a 64 bit environment pointers are 64 bit wide and 
thus I replaced all those (int) with (long). Then wxLua compiled.
Should I commit these changes ?

PS2: I subscribed wxlua-users mailing list to Gmane. I hope this is not 
a problem to anyone ;)
