============================================================== Luatex beta-0.79.3 was released 20150121 (5130) ============================================================== * It's now possible with the MinGW compilers to build luatex and luajittex as DLL for Windows 32bit/64bit. The files are: libkpathsea-6.dll luajittex.exe luatex.exe texlua52.dll texluajit.dll In the next release the build.sh script be updated; for the moment just add "--enable-shared -disable-native-texlive-build " after --disable-all-pkgs in TL_MAKE. Building as DLL was tested only for Windows. * When possibile symbols in the exe are now hidden: this should avoid conflicts with the loading of dynamic shared object. * several bugfixes and improvements. The patches for MetaPost fix seg. faults occourred with wrong inputs. The functions: mp_get_numeric_value, mp_get_string_value, mp_get_boolean_value works if the value is a variable (i.e. not an internal variable, a loop variable and a macro argument); only mp_get_numeric_value now has support for loop variable and internal variable (but still not for macro arguments). We plan 0.80 for TL, with integration of the tokenlib branch, cleanup and bugs fix. We will also test lua 5.3, but we are not sure that it will part of the next TL .
