[vlc-devel] [PATCH 1/3] Fix a Segfault in LUA Services Discovery, adds documentation

[Julien 'Lta' BALLET]

Hi,

I've been working on a simple LUA based SD modules recently and
discovered many (all?) lua sd modules weren't loading correctly since
the initialization was done from another thread/lua interpreter
without the VLC API enabled in it (they are pretty useless at that
stage, since at initialization with just grab a few strings). This
requires some form of module lazy loading that wasn't implemented in
my reference module (icecast) or documented.

These init issue were actually hiding a segfault in the LUA SD that is
fixed in this patch. This patch also adds documentation/example for
the lazy-loading-of-module solution as well and implement the (very
simple solution) in icecast.lua.

Regards,
Julien.
