Hi there,
in Cygwin, LuaJit generates lua51.dll instead of libluajit-5.1.so
<http://libluajit-5.1.so>
However, scripts which depends on pkgconfig/luajit.pc will expect
libluajit-5.1.so <http://libluajit-5.1.so> or libluajit-5.1.dll, since
that's what specified in luajit.pc.
It seems that we should either make Cygwin output libluajit-5.1.so
<http://libluajit-5.1.so>, or change the pkgconfig/luajit.pc file in
cygwin to link against lua51.dll instead of libluajit-5.1
AFAIK dynamic libraries compiled from cygwin cannot be linked by
non-cygwin executables (unless compiled with -mno-cygwin, or compiled
with mingw compiler), so it may be sensible to just use output name
with posix convention like libluajit-5.1.so <http://libluajit-5.1.so>
or libluajit-5.1.dll since this is only for cygwin?
Actually I think it should be called cygluajit-5.1.so
" The name of your library is |${module}|, prefixed with |cyg| for the
DLL and |lib| for the import library. Cygwin DLLs use the |cyg| prefix
to differentiate them from native-Windows MinGW DLLs, see the MinGW
website <http://mingw.org/> for more details. |${old_libs}| are all your
object files, bundled together in static libs or single object files and
the |${dependency_libs}| are import libs you need to link against, e.g
*|'-lpng -lz -L/usr/local/special -lmyspeciallib'|*. "
