2018-12-17T16:46:37+00:00

This is the first commit for the branch Lua 5.3. All source files
were copied from the official distribution of 5.3.5 in the Lua site.
The test files are the same of 5.3.4. The manual came from the
previous RCS repository, revision 1.167.1.2.

tiny code refactoring in 'luaS_hash'

2015-11-23T11:32:51+00:00

new function 'luaS_hashlongstr'

detail (added assertion)

2015-10-08T15:53:31+00:00

code for string cache generalized for "associative sets" (compiler

2015-09-22T14:18:24+00:00

will optimize away or inline the extra loops)

macros 'getaddrstr' and 'getstr' unified (they do the same thing)

2015-09-17T15:51:05+00:00

long strings are created directly in final position when possible

2015-09-08T15:41:05+00:00

(instead of using an auxiliar buffer to first create the string
and then allocate the final string and copy result there)

detail (i + 1 > exp is simply i >= exp)

2015-06-18T14:20:32+00:00

'strcache' elements as arrays of 1 element hints that cache can

2015-06-01T16:34:37+00:00

be n-way (instead of direct mapped)

'clearapihash' -> 'luaS_clearcache' and moved to 'lstring.c' (which

2015-03-25T13:42:19+00:00

keeps all code related to this cache)
