Re: Problem with compiling luabind on windows

[Tyranni <tyranni@...>]

With the release of luabind-0.7 there were slight, breaking interface changes.
I don't think these changes were clearly documented, but the existing documentation is good.

luabind::get_globals is the old form.
The new form is luabind::globals(lua_State*);  there is also luabind::registry(lua_State*).
This is stated in the documentation (Related Functions section).

FYI, there is a luabind-specific mailing list:
http://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/luabind-user
(also gmane.comp.lang.lua.bind.user)
There is also #luabind on freenode.

Good luck!
