Hi, I would really like to use lua eclipse to debug lua 5.2 ... does anyone know when I might expect to see support for this?

Thank you!

Thanks for reporting this Ewan.

At the time the debugger was created, we were targetting 5.1.
Still, it should of course work on Lua 5.2. It seems to be broken because of the "debug" module not being loaded by default anymore (see http://lua-users.org/wiki/LuaFiveTwo)

You should try adding 
local debug = require 'debug'
at line 47 , it should do the trick ...

In the mean time, I have opened bug https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=375622

Cheers!

Hello, you can find a pre-version of a 5.2 ready debugger on bugzilla (see link posted by Benjamin). There is some known glitches detailed in comments. Please post any feedback you could have.

Cheers.
