FFI with Editor 2 (SOLVED)

Questions
#1

Could why ffi isn’t working right with Editor 2 be investigated soon?

#2

Is there a ticket for this? I will talk to @mats.gisselson, @Erik_Angelin and @Ragnar_Dahlen today and ask.

@Pkeod: ffi is in the package.preload table. At least when I test in the latest Editor 2 on OSX.

I see that too when printing package on Windows, shouldn’t it work?

DEBUG:SCRIPT: 
{
  preload = {
    ffi = function: 0x3d428520,
  }

If I do local ffi = require("ffi") it says not found. If I try to use ffi it says attempt to index global 'ffi' (a nil value).

You shouldn’t require ffi like that. Try:

local ffi = package.preload.ffi()
