* docs: Fix LUA_LIBDIR handling in example MakefileTobiasz Laskowski2026-07-111-56/+68
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | See: #1257 On most platforms LUA_LIBDIR is empty, so you get: Warning: unmatched variable LUA_LIBDIR And the resulting empty -L flag in the example can cause issues like: ld: warning: search path '-lpthread' not found It's also not sufficient to pass the -L flag, you also have to provide the actual library to link. I've updated the example to only set LUA_LIBDIR for windows where it is used by default. However, as noted in it is possible to do: luarocks config link_lua_explicitly true It would be better to respect this setting rather than hard-coding windows only, but I'm not sure the best way to check that config in the rockspec, I wonder if anyone else has any suggestions? [docs] Use implicit rules in example makefile See: https://www.gnu.org/software/make/manual/html_node/Catalogue-of-Rules.html#index-C_002c-rule-to-compile https://www.gnu.org/software/make/manual/html_node/Catalogue-of-Rules.html#index-linking_002c-predefined-rule-for https://www.gnu.org/software/make/manual/html_node/Implicit-Variables.html#index-CPPFLAGS https://www.gnu.org/software/make/manual/html_node/Implicit-Variables.html#index-LDFLAGS [docs] Fix LUA_LIBDIR handling in makefile example The example setup given here gives this warning on most systems: ``` Warning: unmatched variable LUA_LIBDIR ``` Also, you get an empty `-L` flag, which one some compilers will eat the following flag, causing issues, e.g. ``` ld: warning: search path '-lpthread' not found ``` This is because most environments do not require explicit linking of LUALIB, so it LUA_LIBDIR not set. This patch fixes the sample by only setting `LUA_LIBDIR` when it is actually needed, i.e. on windows. [docs] Fix example makefile for windows On windows, LUALIB is set to e.g. `lua51.dll`, which is the full name and does not work with `-llua51.dll`. Passing the full path here allows it to be linked properly. Another option is `-l:$(LUALIB)` to specify the full file name, but some linkers do not support that syntax.

| | | | | | | Rockspecs can access the directory of its dependencies using variables in the format 'foo_ROCKDIR' where 'foo' is the name of a dependency. This is used to be able to access files of the rock like 'conf', 'docs' and more.
