Since the Lua file is untrusted I don't want a malicious user to hang the program indefinitely with an infinite loop in the Lua code. T...
Hey there, I'm working on a small project trying to integrate lua with c++. My problem however is as follows: I have multiple lua scripts, lets call them s1.lua s2.lua and s3.lua.

The documentation for that function though only explains how to call a function, not how to execute a file. Currently to run the file I use: int error = luaL_loadfile(mState, path.c_str()) || lua_pcall(mSta...
