Linking Lua

[JlnWntr]

• Node Version: v6.12.2
• Platform: Linux 4.4.0-134-generic issue with node 0.8.14 #160-Ubuntu
• Compiler: gcc-8
• Module: my own

I've downloaded and installed Lua like explained here: https://www.lua.org/download.html

Now I try to use Lua in the C++ code for my nodejs addon. This is my binding.gyp file:

  "targets": [
    {
      "target_name": "lua",
      "sources": [ "lua.cpp" ],

        "libraries": [
          "-ldl",
          "-llua",
        ],

      "cflags_cc": [
        "-std=c++17", "-fconcepts",
      ]
    }
  ]
}

This is not working. I always get this error:

/usr/bin/ld: //usr/local/lib/liblua.a(lapi.o): relocation of
//usr/local/lib/liblua.a: error adding symbols: undefined vlaue
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [Release/obj.target/lua.node] Error 1
gyp ERR! build error
gyp ERR! stack Error: make failed with exit code: 2
gyp ERR! stack at ChildProcess.onExit (/usr/lib/node_modules/node-gyp/lib/build.js:262:23)
...

I definitely can compile any c++-code with llua on my system like this:

g++-8 lua_app.cpp -std=c++17 -llua -ldl -Wall -fconcepts

What am I doing wrong with node-gyp?

@creationix you don't happen to have a lua-embedded-in-a-node-addon binding.gyp example handy do you?
closing this issue due to staleness.

Well, this issue is not resolved yet.

I do not, sorry.
