This documentation is for LuaJIT 2.1.0-beta3. Please check the <tt>doc</tt>
2021-01-02 12:17:01 -08:00
directory in each git branch for the version-specific documentation.
</p>
<p>
The currently developed branches are LuaJIT&nbsp;2.1 and LuaJIT&nbsp;2.0.
</p>
<p>
LuaJIT&nbsp;2.0 is in feature-freeze &mdash; new features will only
be added to LuaJIT&nbsp;2.1.
2009-12-08 10:46:35 -08:00
</p>
<h2>Current Status</h2>
<p>
LuaJIT ought to run all Lua&nbsp;5.1-compatible source code just fine.
It's considered a serious bug if the VM crashes or produces unexpected
results &mdash; please report this.
</p>
<p>
Known incompatibilities and issues in LuaJIT&nbsp;2.0:
2009-12-08 10:46:35 -08:00
</p>
<ul>
<li>
There are some differences in <b>implementation-defined</b> behavior.
2022-06-23 00:10:09 -07:00
These either have a good reason, are arbitrary design choices,
2009-12-08 10:46:35 -08:00
or are due to quirks in the VM. The latter cases may get fixed if a
demonstrable need is shown.
</li>
<li>
The Lua <b>debug API</b> is missing a couple of features (return
hooks for non-Lua functions) and shows slightly different behavior
in LuaJIT (no per-coroutine hooks, no tail call counting).
