    I wasnt able to use luaJIT plugin. Is it still working for latest Gideros?

    Okay, I got it worked. :) Perfect!

  • btw, I just updated it for the next version of Gideros.

    I recommend you do this though:

    Install Gideros.
    Go to c:\program files (or c:\program files (x86) if using an x64 OS).
    Right-click Gideros and copy it to GiderosJIT (so you have two versions of Gideros).
    Copy the files from the zip into the GiderosJIT folder, overwriting existing files.
    Now make shortcuts from GiderosJIT to your desktop or somewhere.

    This way you can use normal Lua for some of the exports that don't support JIT (windows mobile, html5, iOS, OSX) and LuaJIT for those that do (all the Android exports, Windows desktop, Raspberry Pi (future!) ).

  • Yes, I already created copy of Gideros. Cant we export for ios with luajit?
  • I'm unsure - not with my patch - but I think someone did a compile for iOS with LuaJIT (but in interpreter mode). If anyone knows about it then please let me know here and I'll add it to the patch. :)

  • Also - on a side note - in the long run LuaJIT on iOS and OSX might not be a good idea - as they seem to be abandoning arm binaries and going for a type of binary that can be recompiled on their servers. They have already done this with AppleTV and they don't seem to be having any problems - so I guess they will extend this to all binaries soon.
