Re: problem embedding LuaJIT

[Oskar Forsslund <matrixsmurfen@...>]

Thank you =)

I don't know if this is what you asked but what we had to do to solve it was to set the D3DCREATE_FPU_PRESERVE in the BehaviorFlags parameter to our IDirect3D9::CreateDevice calls.

We are running Microsoft Direct X SDK 28 march 2009

       That's a nasty issue. I'm not sure why Microsoft decided that this was a good idea, especially for a library that is to be linked with almost any game software.
       And I thought this was fixed in recent DXSDK releases. I guess not...
       Oh, and it's nasty, because it happened for us when we wanted to use some D3D functionality in a tool, and because it was created on demand there were some very undeterministic results happening from other data (and our game build process requires full determinism, so we can detect a type of conflicts when materials share the same texture).
       For that we had to reset the fpu flags using _control87 (was it that one, or there was maybe newer).

       Good finding, Oskar!

[SOLVED]

i finally got som proper erro handling working in lua and got the error
message:
'bad FPU precision (use D3DCREATE_FPU_PRESERVE with DirectX)'
i set the flag everywhere i used direct x and now it works!

as stated before, this problem somehow crashed luajit when trying to
call luaL_openlibs

   using dependency walker i noticed that the lua51.dll link checksum

   is this a problem indicator?

       It should. The advice is to get Dependency Walker (a free download
       from MS) to see what DLLs your application is seeing.

       More general advice: check your return codes carefully!  You need to
       know how far you've got; can you create a Lua_state? Can you
       lua_pcall
       a simple function? If not, what is the error pushed by that?
