#include "LuaAdapter.hpp"

and compile your program

$ g++-8 your_program.cpp -std=c++17 -llua -ldl

Requirements

• Download and install Lua.
• g++-8 or higher

Troubleshooting

If apt-get install g++-8 does not work on your Debian, try add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-toolchain-r/test && apt-get update first.

If g++-8 is not available on your system, you can try an older version of Lua-Adapter.
