Workaround for tolua++ crash under Ubuntu 11
In the midst of some heavy deadlines, I ran into a most annoying problem with our build process: out of the blue, the normally reliable “tolua++” tool started to segfault. It took a while but it suddenly dawned on me that I was working on a VM with the (then) most recent Ubuntu.
I’ll keep it short: the problem appears to be a command line processing one, and the fix is to add characters to the command line…
I added whitespaces, re-ordered the arguments and added a pointless -E argument, from:
tolua++5.1 -n stratd -o stratdpkg.cc hostproj/stratd.pkg
to
tolua++5.1 -o stratdpkg.cc -n stratd -D -C -E project=ww2ol hostproj/stratd.pkg
No more segfaults.
Bizzare.
