Lua

Doris is a script driven OpenGL viewer. The script language used is Lua. It is a powerful, fast, portable language, great for embedding in applications. A binding is provided for Lua to OpenGL, GLUT and GLUI so that graphical scripts can be written. The GLUI widget library provides a nice set of OpenGL implemented widgets for use from Lua. The whole thing is designed to be portable and easy to use. See the References further down this page for more details and links.

Lua is a great programming language that prides itself on ANSI C portability, small size, simplicity and ease of embedding. Due to these goals, the official Lua distribution cannot provide features common to popular stand-alone scripting languages. With the LuaCheia project, we wish to make a full-featured language based on Lua that makes it more usable as a stand-alone language. Lua cheia is Portuguese for full moon.

LuaForge, a free service to the Lua community that can be used to fully host Lua projects and as a catalog of Lua projects (see Project Tree). Please keep in mind that LuaForge is still being tested and should be used with care. You can help LuaForge by registering your current or future project here, even if it is hosted somewhere else. The only requirement is that it uses Lua.

LuaJava is a scripting tool for Java. The goal of this tool is to allow scripts written in Lua to manipulate components developed in Java. LuaJava allows Java components to be accessed from Lua using the same syntax that is used for accessing Lua`s native objects, without any need for declarations or any kind of preprocessing. LuaJava also allows Java to implement an interface using Lua. This way any interface can be implemented in Lua and passed as parameter to any method, and when called, the equivalent function will be called in Lua, and it′s result passed back to Java.

PowerBLua is a little contribution of mine to the PowerBASIC community. It′s a wrapper for Lua, a powerful light-weight programming language designed for extending applications. At the moment, only a subset of API is implemented, but thankful to the Lua flexibility, is already more than enough to do something useful with the language.

Lua is a powerful light-weight programming language designed for extending applications. Lua is also frequently used as a general-purpose, stand-alone language. Lua is free software. Lua combines simple procedural syntax with powerful data description constructs based on associative arrays and extensible semantics. Lua is dynamically typed, interpreted from bytecodes, and has automatic memory management with garbage collection, making it ideal for configuration, scripting, and rapid prototyping.
