When I run lua52 from the command line here is what print(package.cpath)
gives me:
F:\Milind\Technical\My Work\My
Programs\Lua\LuaTest\lua\?.dll;F:\Milind\Technica
l\My Work\My Programs\Lua\LuaTest\lua\loadall.dll;.\?.dll
When I do the same in Zero brane (path.lua52 points to the same lua52) I
get:
D:\Milind\Documents\Programs\ZeroBraneStudio\bin/?.dll;D:\Milind\Documents\Programs\ZeroBraneStudio\bin/clibs52/?.dll;bin/?.dll;bin/clibs52/?.dll;.\?.dll;D:\Milind\Documents\Programs\ZeroBraneStudio\?.dll;D:\Milind\Documents\Programs\ZeroBraneStudio\loadall.dll;D:\Milind\Documents\Programs\ZeroBraneStudio\bin/?.dll;D:\Milind\Documents\Programs\ZeroBraneStudio\bin/clibs52/?.dll;
So it has totally changed. Now my local path is not there anymore.
Second problem I see is that I have iuplua.dll in the same directory as
this lua52 and require("iuplua") fails even though it searches at
.\iuplua.dll (which is present in the overwritten package.cpath) so it
seems the current directory is not the same directory as what is opened in
the project directory tree since I have opened the same directory there
where I have my lua52 executable.
