FindLuaΒΆ

Locate Lua library.

New in version 3.18: Support for Lua 5.4.

This module defines:

LUA_FOUND
if false, do not try to link to Lua
LUA_LIBRARIES
both lua and lualib
LUA_INCLUDE_DIR
where to find lua.h
LUA_VERSION_STRING
the version of Lua found
LUA_VERSION_MAJOR
the major version of Lua
LUA_VERSION_MINOR
the minor version of Lua
LUA_VERSION_PATCH
the patch version of Lua

Note that the expected include convention is

#include "lua.h"

and not

#include <lua/lua.h>

This is because, the lua location is not standardized and may exist in locations other than lua/
