need some help with including lua into my c++ dll

wasted several hours today trying to fix it but without any success

i wrote a small c++ framework whch i inject into some process
decided to implement some lua scripting with binds to my c++ functions
found LuaIntF which i tried to implement but im stuck somehow

when i include lua.hpp and compile my dll i am not able to inject it anymore (LoadLibrary on remote process failed)
when i remove the lua.hpp include i am able to inject the built dll again

i have no fucking clue where the problem is located

tried with 5.3.4 from nuget
and i also tried with different version directly from source from lua.org

project is x64/debug currently

it somehow doesnt let me inject my dll when the lua lib is linked

For the easiest method of binding Lua I'd suggest Luabind. This will require you to use Lua 5.1.x though if you are fine with going down to the more used version of Lua.

There is a boost-removed version on Github here:

You may want to look into the forks of this though for newer updates/fixes from community members that have not pulled in their changes to the main repo.


As for failing to inject, if you are not compiling Lua as a static library then you need to make sure that your Lua dll is in the same folder as the game.

nvm fixed it.... had to place the lua.dll inside the path where the process is located i am injecting to
