<h2 id="load">Loading the FFI Library</h2>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
The FFI library is built into LuaJIT by default, but it's not loaded
|
||
|
|
and initialized by default. The suggested way to use the FFI library
|
||
|
|
is to add the following to the start of every Lua file that needs one
|
||
|
|
of its functions:
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<pre class="code">
|
||
|
|
local ffi = require("ffi")
|
||
|
|
</pre>
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
Please note this doesn't define an <tt>ffi</tt> variable in the table
|
||
|
|
of globals — you really need to use the local variable. The
|
||
|
|
<tt>require</tt> function ensures the library is only loaded once.
|
||
|
|
