nhl_error() was clobbering the stack. I assume that the 'source'
field in the Lua debugging structure is normally a file name, but
nethack loads an entire Lua script into one long string because it
usually comes out of the DLB container, and 'source' contained the
full string. That would overflow the local buffer in nhl_error()
if nethack encountered a Lua problem and tried to report it. (In
my case, the problem was in a level description file modification.)
[Not something under user control unless user can modify dat/*.lua
and put the result into $HACKDIR/nhdat.]
Whenever a lua script references a core struct obj, increment a counter
in the obj struct. Core code will not free the obj, if there are any
lua references pointing to it, just makes it free-floating.
When lua script ends, the lua gc will free the free-floating objects.
Also exposes u.inventory to lua.
Breaks save and bones compat.
groundwork only - window port interface change
This changes the last parameter for add_menu() from a boolean
to an unsigned int, to allow additional itemflags in future
beyond just the "preselected" that the original boolean offered.
There shouldn't be any functionality changes with this groundwork-only
change, and if there are it is unintentional and should be reported.
Eliminate a couple of warnings about unused static routines.
That led to a couple of other things.
I hope I got host vs target right in the mdlib.c '#if's.
Copy lib/lua-$(VERSION)/src/liblua.h to lib/lua/ rather than lib/.
Instead of copying any of the header files or telling the compiler
where to find the lua ones, generate include/nhlua.h on the fly and
restrict the knowledge of where they are to it (paths are relative
to include/).
|/* nhlua.h - generated by top Makefile */
|#include "../lib/lua-5.3.5/src/lua.h"
|LUA_API int (lua_error) (lua_State *L) NORETURN;
|#include "../lib/lua-5.3.5/src/lualib.h"
|#include "../lib/lua-5.3.5/src/lauxlib.h"
|/*nhlua.h*/
This might need to be redone (or augmented by having CFLAGS add back
'-I path-to-lua') if some compiler can't find '#include "luaconf.h"'
issued by lua.h.
Unix Makefile.utl wasn't aware of the dependency of makedefs.o on
src/mdlib.c so didn't rebuild makedefs when it should have.
Eliminate several warnings:
mdlib.c - #if inside the arguments to macro Sprintf();
nhlua.c - nhl_error() ends with a call to lua_error() which doesn't
return, but neither of them were declared that way;
nhlsel.c - because of the previous, the 'else error' case of
l_selection_ellipse() led to complaints about uninitialized
variables;
sp_lev.c - missing 'const'.
I did minimal testing which went ok, but revisiting a couple of levels
gave me un-freed memory allocated by restore.c line 1337. (I haven't
looked at that at all.)
Game is playable, and should compile on linux and Windows.
Assumes you have a lua 5.3 library available.
Removes level compiler and associated files.
Replaces special level des-files with lua scripts.
Exposes some NetHack internals to lua:
- des-table with commands to create special levels
- nh-table with NetHack core commands
- nhc-table with some constants
- u-table with some player-specific data (u-struct)
- selection userdata
Adds some rudimentary tests.
Adds new extended command #wizloadlua to run a specific script,
and #wizloaddes to run a specific level-creation script.
nhlib.lua is loaded for every lua script.
Download and untar lua:
mkdir lib
cd lib
curl -R -O http://www.lua.org/ftp/lua-5.3.5.tar.gz
tar zxf lua-5.3.5.tar.gz
Then make nethack normally.
