Bug: 'lua_load' does not preserve the stack

2026-04-23T20:57:42+00:00

'lua_load' does not preserve the stack through the calls to the reader function, as it should. Immediately after the first call (to detect whether chunk is binary) it adds stuff, and it also adds a new table when starting the compilation of each new function.

Variable attributes can prefix name list

2025-05-18T14:43:43+00:00

In this format, the attribute applies to all names in the list; e.g. "global print, require, math".

Removed copyright notice from 'testes/all.lua'

Checks for type 'int' added to binary header

The structure 'AbsLineInfo' is hard-dumped into binary chunks, and it comprises two 'int' fields.

Debug information about extra arguments from __call

2024-11-19T17:09:18+00:00

'debug.getinfo' can return number of extra arguments added to a call by a chain of __call metavalues. That information is being used to improve error messages about errors in these extra arguments.

Counter for length of chains of __call metamethods

2024-11-16T15:00:28+00:00

This counter will allow (in a later commit) error messages to correct argument numbers in functions called through __call metamethods.

A return can have at most 254 values
