Lua C 编译 -llua 错误

Question

I am attempting to compile some C code to run with Lua through the command:

gcc -o first first.c -llua -lm

and the output I receive:

ld: library not found for -llua
clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1

I have also tried:

-llua53
-llua5.3

But it still provides the same error. Would anyone be able to lead me to find out what library I need to provide with compiling, and where it's located?

Answer 1

Please check the name of the static library file. eg if it is called liblua.a the linker cannot find the llua library.

I simply renamed the file liblua.a to 'llua.a'.
