Request for DLL

[ihkk]

Hi, I'm a user who is not so familiar with C/C++, and I'm simply trying to use this module transforming strings from UTF-8 into GBK in my lua script. I've tried directly run the sample programme test.lua but it reported with the errors below. I guess maybe I need to compile the module into a dll to enable lua use it? However I do not know the method to compile, so is it possibile if you could give me any suggestions or release a dll file (maybe both 32 and 64bit)? Many thanks for that.

You could look into my another project https://github.com/starwing/lua-protobuf , in Install section I list the DLL compiling methods. just change the name of library/source file.

In widondows, can compile like this: gcc lgbk.c -I lua_header_path -L lua_lib_path -llua53 -s -mdll -O2 -DLUA_BUILD_AS_DLL -o gbk.dll

not sure why, but this did nothing in my environment. i am using mingw gcc, no gbk.dll generated and no error reported...just nothing.

i used vs2019 to compile it successfully.

I dont know why. I recommend always using vs or mingw, not both. @zengfanfan
