代碼原理不細說，非常簡單。唯一值得一提的是socket庫包含。最開始用的這句 require "socket"

在解釋器中表現(xiàn)很好，但在用C中調用會找不到相應的module。錯誤提示

  no file '.\socket.lua'

網(wǎng)上也有好多類似的提問，大抵是沒仔細看作者的Guide。顯著的有這么一句

The other two environment variables instruct the compatibility module to look for dynamic libraries and extension modules in the appropriate directories and with the appropriate filename extensions.>

LUAPATH=/?.lua;?.lua LUACPATH=/?.dll;?.dll

至于"socket.core"，windows默認安裝位于“\socket\core.dll”。
