Package: libtolua++5.1-dev
Version: 1.0.93-3.1
Tags: patch
libtolua++5.1-dev cannot be used for cross compilation. If you install
it for the host architecture, the tolua++5.1 tool cannot be run. If you
install it for the build architecture, the static library cannot be
linked. Quite fundamentally, for cross building one needs to combine a
build architecture tolua++5.1 converter and a host architecture static
library. Quite obviously, this requirement translates to using different
binary packages for these components. I'm attaching a patch to implement
exactly that. Please consider applying it.
A not so obvious requirement for doing this is that tolua++5.1 actually
behaves in an architecture-independent way. Otherwise, a package
containing it must not be marked Multi-Arch: foreign, which would render
the exercise pointless. I've looked into it and it essentially deals
with text files only, which is a good sign already. Moreover none of the
inputs nor outputs look architecture-dependent in any way to me (which
kinda is expected from source files). So it looks like we're good on
this.

+Description: extended tool to integrate C/C++ code with Lua (tolua++5.1
converter)
+ tolua++5.1 is an extension of toLua, a tool to integrate C/C++ code with
+ Lua. tolua++5.1 includes new features oriented to c++, such as class
+ templates and is compiled with the newest lua 5.1.
+ .
+ Based on a "cleaned" header file, tolua++ automatically generates
+ the binding code to access C/C++ features from Lua. Using Lua-5.1 API and
+ metamethod facilities, the current version automatically maps C/C++
+ constants, external variables, functions, namespace, classes, and methods
+ to Lua. It also provides facilities to create Lua modules.
+ .
+ This package contains the tolua++5.1 conversion utility. Use
+ libtolua++5.1-dev instead.
