Windows 64 bit build

lua-rapidjson can not be built under Windows 64 bit in Appveyor

I installed it for testing purposes in my project in Appveyor.

x86 version can be built, but 64 bit version fails.

One of error messages:

rapidjson.obj : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol _lua_pushfstring referenced in
 function "int __cdecl decode<struct rapidjson::GenericStringStream<struct rapidjson::UTF8
<char> > >(struct lua_State *,struct rapidjson::GenericStringStream<struct rapidjson::UTF8
<char> > *)"

Sorry too late back to here.

lua-rapidjson use luarocks and cmake to build.

but luarocks does not have 64 bit cmake build support yet. And have reported here luarocks/luarocks/issues/382

you may need to use cmake directly:

1. checkout lua-rapidjson
2. in the lua-rapidjson porject root run cmake -H. -Bbuild.luarocks -G Visual Studio 2013 Win64
3. install the result manually

Thank you!

I'm working on a PR for LuaRocks to address this issue.

Here is a build using my proposed PR:

https://ci.appveyor.com/project/ignacio/lua-rapidjson/build/0.1.0.12

It passes for x86, it fails for x64 but it is something related to busted. If you see, lua-rapidjson is being compiled as 64 bits.

BTW, the PR is here.

@ignacio Thank you very much!

@xpol A fix has landed on LuaRocks allowing to build with cmake on x64. It is on the scm version but I presume there is gonna be a new release sometime soon.

@ignacio Great! Thank you very much.
