C API for Lua - hummelsystemhaus - 01.06.2022

Hello,

i tried to use the Debug Library of lua which should be available in the standard lib.
But it seems the library is not available because I get nil.
Code:
LuaJIT 2.0.5 -- Copyright (C) 2005-2021 Mike Pall. https://luajit.org/
JIT: ON ARMv7 VFPv3 fold cse dce fwd dse narrow loop abc sink fuse
> print(debug)
nil
I tried to use a fresh compiled version of luajit and there the C API is available, but I can´t use the precompiled lua modules anymore.
Code:
LuaJIT 2.1.0-beta3 -- Copyright (C) 2005-2022 Mike Pall. https://luajit.org/
JIT: ON ARMv7 VFPv3 fold cse dce fwd dse narrow loop abc sink fuse
> print(debug)
table: 0xb6f241b0
How can I use the debug library together with the precompiled modules like socket and apps ?

Thanks in advance!

debug library is removed from LuaJIT in LM. What is your use case for this library?

Thanks for the fast reply. It is for development purpose only because we use huge lua scripts in our apps and it is very comfortable to set breakpoints and view variables instead of "logging each line".

I also started developing my own Lua applications.

I encountered the same problem of struggling with development because debug.so did not exist. I tried downloading the package from the link, but it currently results in a 404 Not Found error.

It would be very convenient to be able to check the stacktrace when an error occurs if this were available.

Could you please redistribute it again? I use lm-24-imx6/lm5gmc-20240426.img firmware for my LogicMachine.

Thank you in advance.
