wxLua / News: Recent posts

wxLua 3.1.0.0 release adds support for Lua 5.4 (in addition to supporting Lua 5.1, 5.2, 5.3, and LuaJIT), implements several new classes (wxDataViewCtrl, wxTranslations), includes a large number of improvements/fixes, and has been tested on the most recent version of wxwidgets (3.1.4) and its current master branch. The up-to-date project repository is available at https://github.com/pkulchenko/wxlua.

wxLua 2.8.12.3 is a long overdue stable bugfix release. There are a few new wxWidgets classes and functions. The binding generator has been changed to accept simple valid C++ code. The precompiled versions are linked against the SVN trunk of the wxWidgets 2.8 branch (2.8.12 with bug fixes). Note that the wxLua source code can be compiled against wxWidgets 2.9.x too.

wxLua 2.8.12.2 is a stable bugfix release that is a minor update to the internals of wxLua. The precompiled versions are linked against wxWidgets 2.8.12. Note that the source code can be compiled against wxWidgets 2.9.x.

wxLua 2.8.10.0 is a stable bugfix release that is a minor update to the internals of wxLua and the precompiled versions are linked against wxWidgets 2.8.10.

We are pleased to announce the latest release of wxLua.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
wxLua is a Lua scripting language wrapper around the wxWidgets cross-platform
GUI library. It consists of an executable for running standalone wxLua scripts
and a library for extending C++ programs with a fast, small, fully embeddable
scripting language.

This fixes a couple bugs in the bindings for handing the same data being pushed into Lua multiple times. Additionally, the wxWidgets bindings are separated into the same libs that wxWidgets uses instead of having one large monolithic binding.

Enable wxMediaCtrl by default.

Major updates for wxWidgets 2.8.4 and Lua 5.1.2.

Thanks to Anders F. Bjorklund, now wxLua also provides a binary download for Mac OS X Tiger!

wxLua development team is pleased to announce that wxLua 2.8.0.0 is now available for download.

For more info please look at the announcement in the mailing list.

Now that wxWidgets 2.8.0 has been released, wxLua team is preparing to release wxLua 2.8.0.0 with a lot of new features and updates. If you find time to test latest wxLua snapshots and find problems with them, please let us now!

Previously wxLua used a slightly modified version of lua to track the creation and deletion of coroutines. This code has been reworked so this is no longer necessary.

The wxLua project has been subscribed to LuaForge, too !
While the main development happens at http://wxlua.sourceforge.net, wxLua development team hopes that registering the project also at LuaForge the users will find it more quickly.

Finally there is a small amount of documentation for programming in wxLua. It is currently being written and any information you can give about what gave you trouble learning it would be useful. See the documentation page.

A daily snaptshot of the CVS HEAD source code is available in tar.gz format. You can also browse the sources online. See the download page for more information.

The first release created since wxLua has moved to sourceforge is out !
Let us know if you find it useful !

First release of wxLua at SF is being prepared - hopefully it will be a matter of few days ;)

wxLua project has launched the new website. Thanks to Haran for its Gila OS webdesign !
