Provided binaries out of date (were they ever in?)

Hi,

Just a note to say that I had to rebuild the static lib building solution provided with lua 5.1.3 and the head revision of luabind to work properly with VC8. Otherwise you won't be able to open the io library and hence call luaL_openlibs() without it crashing.

Admin really should update the binaries and demo for clueless newbies although it never hurts to explain how to do it so that they can learn. I hope that the next person that finds them-self in the situation that I found myself in reads this early on in the piece and saves them-self some time.

I don't understand how anyone got the current binaries to run - that said, the demo actually never calls luaL_openlibs().

Thanks,

J

Oops

I didn't fully check the binaries after the last update and didn't notice this at all. Sorry.

I'll provide an updated release tomorrow.

Updated!

The binaries have been updated, I'm now using LuaBind from SVN with Lua 5.1.3 and Boost 1.34.1. The new archive contains libraries for Visual C++ 2005 and Visual C++ 2008, the example is now a Visual C++ 2008 Express solution.

I've done some testing, including luaL_openlibs() of course, and couldn't find any more problems.
