compiling mogoose with lua

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago

I am using mongoose 4.1 api with my c application on an arm based linux system. 
I was using few python scripts and other cgi scripts by adding the extension as 
-> "cgi_pattern", "**.cgi$|**.pl$|**.php$",

Want to use a lua script now just for testing , what are the changes should I 
make to the mongoose.c or mongoose.h files ? 

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
The mongoose should run the lua script instead it just shows the whole script 
text when I try to run. 

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
mongoose 4.1 running on linux

Please provide any additional information below.
I dont run mongoose independently , it is part of my application , i just 
import mongoose.h and mongoose.c into my project. 
So how can I also modify it to use lua with mongoose now.

Are you going to use Lua script as CGI?
Is your embedded application commercial or open-source?

No change for mongoose is needed.
Rename your Lua script to have ".cgi" extension.

I am using the example script primenumbers.lp just for testing but it gives an 
error like this

here is the script

      for i = 3, n / 2, 2 do
        if (n % i == 0) then return false end
      end
