Make the number of internal keeper states selectable by an optional parameter passed to require. 2011-02-21T19:33:39+00:00 Benoit Germain bnt.germain@gmail.com 2011-02-21T19:33:39+00:00 urn:sha1:974aa4343cf900938b5d357d10798d91faf60f5a * keeper.lua is now embedded in text form instead of bytecode to improve LuaJIT2-compatibility (but this is not enough). 2011-02-18T19:33:43+00:00 Benoit Germain bnt.germain@gmail.com 2011-02-18T19:33:43+00:00 urn:sha1:1760eafa1d2ebce8f07e11414a53d4a251af5b8e * moved keeper-related code in a separate source file Lane userdata implementation refactoring: 2011-02-17T06:52:53+00:00 Benoit Germain bnt.germain@gmail.com 2011-02-17T06:52:53+00:00 urn:sha1:ab233d0c9a1edc34836e2249c1eb6d714f1066b5 - Refactor lane proxy implementation: it is now a full userdata instead of a table, and its methods are implemented in C instead of Lua. * its metatable is no longer accessible. * writing to the proxy raises an error. * it is no longer possible to overwrite its join() and cancel() methods - when a deep userdata idfunc requests a module to be required, manually check that it is not loaded before requiring it instead of relying on the require function's loop detection feature. - when a module must be required, raise an error if the 'require' function is not found in the target state. - we know Lanes is loaded in the master state, so we don't force it to be required in every lane too when a linda deep userdata is copied. Fixed application hang-up because keeper state was not released in case of errors thrown by inter-state data copy for unsupported types 2011-02-14T20:20:24+00:00 Benoit Germain bnt.germain@gmail.com 2011-02-14T20:20:24+00:00 urn:sha1:afb2da4789cdaddc5a0c3c9c2d57ccd36bcc74c7 Changed idfunc signature and contract to clarify that fact it is not lua-callable and to be able to require the module it was exported from in the target lanes. 2011-02-12T16:06:03+00:00 Benoit Germain bnt.germain@gmail.com 2011-02-12T16:06:03+00:00 urn:sha1:a661736f7984292a41d71847de68590f6b8ca08a Updated CHANGES 2011-01-29T16:40:50+00:00 Benoit Germain bnt.germain@gmail.com 2011-01-29T16:40:50+00:00 urn:sha1:3dc924cac5f687ca03d187d0c4ed7d088834ffc3 Fixed makefile so that make finds lua.exe Updated contact information in documentation
