Does not work with lua 5.2.3

[srdgame]

Hi,

It does not work with lua 5.2.3 in my laptop, (Ubuntu Gnome 14.04 amd64). It works with luajit from openresty. Below is the result running test.lua:

cch@cch-NV47H:~/mycode/lua/lumen/tests$ lua test.lua A says: going to sleep couple seconds B says: waiting for a A to die 0 says: waiting for a 'ev' from A cch@cch-NV47H:~/mycode/lua/lumen/tests$ /usr/local/openresty/luajit/bin/luajit-2.1.0-alpha test.lua A says: going to sleep couple seconds B says: waiting for a A to die 0 says: waiting for a 'ev' from A A says: emittig 'ev, data!' 0 says: received a 'ev' from A, with: data! 0 says: going to kill A B says: hear that A died B says: going to error with message 'xxx' 2014/05/08 18:22:46 SCHED-WARNING: table: 0x406949a0 die on error, returning 1 parameters: test.lua:25: xxx 0 says: finishing, returning data! cch@cch-NV47H:~/mycode/lua/lumen/tests$

[srdgame]

sched.run(function() local A=sched.run(function() print("A says: going to sleep couple seconds") sched.sleep(0)

By changing the sleep(2) to sleep(0) the programing runs well with lua 5.2.3.

Set the log level to ALL

The issue is from the lib/idle.lua

Below is the fix.

local function unix_idle (t)

local ret = os.execute('sleep '..t) 
if _VERSION =='Lua 5.1' and ret ~= 0 
or (_VERSION =='Lua 5.2' or _VERSION == "Lua 5.3") and ret ~= true then 
    os.exit() 
end

end

[srdgame]

or Just remove the (_VERSION =='Lua 5.2' or _VERSION == "Lua 5.3")

Thank you, commited.

I have the same problem with LuaJIT as installed from torch (currently LuaJIT 2.1.0-beta1) on linux, which also reports _VERSION=='Lua 5.1'.

The ugly but explicit version fix following the above is:

    local ret = os.execute('sleep '..t)
    if _VERSION =='Lua 5.1' and type(jit) ~= 'table' and ret ~= 0
    or _VERSION ~='Lua 5.1' and ret ~= true
    or _VERSION =='Lua 5.1' and type(jit) == 'table' and ret ~= true then
            os.exit()
    end

but from my limited testing it seems you can just do:

    local ret = os.execute('sleep '..t)
    if ret == 0 or ret == true then
        return
    end
    os.exit()

The second form works on Lua 5.2 on mac OSX and linux/LuaJIT as above.

Thanks, I pushed your second option (and left the first commented as documentation)
