Yes, you should be able to do this. If your application includes
luasocket, you don't need to do anything else and can just follow
instructions on this page:
http://studio.zerobrane.com/doc-remote-debugging.html.
If your application doesn't include luasocket, you can try to
reference luasocket that is included with ZBS (you can set
LUA_PATH/LUA_CPATH or package.path/package.cpath appropriately before
loading mobdebug). There are several applications that work this way
(for example, love2d). I posted an example of a batch file that does
this here:
http://studio.zerobrane.com/doc-remote-debugging.html#setup_environment_for_debugging
If your application is incompatible with the luasocket that ships with
ZBS (for example, yours is 64bit or is using Lua 5.2), then you will
need to compile luasocket for your application and link it against a
Lua dll that you will need to include.
Paul.
P.S. I'm cc-ing you as you don't seem to be subscribed to the list;
