Problem loading packages in local directory in threads

[zck119]

Hi,

I'm having a problem loading packages from local directory. The problem can be reproduced by the following code:

local init = require 'empty.lua'
local Threads = require 'threads'
Threads.serialization('threads.sharedserialize')

function main()
    require 'empty.lua'
    local function init() 
        require 'empty.lua'
    end 
    t = Threads(1, init)
end 

main()

where empty.lua is a lua package saved in local directory.

Error is only reported for the last require (i.e. the one used in thread initialisation), and loading built-in packages does not generate an error.

Thanks

@zck119 this will work

local init = require 'empty'
local Threads = require 'threads'
Threads.serialization('threads.sharedserialize')

function main()
    require 'empty'
    local function init()
        require 'empty'
    end
    t = Threads(1, init)
end

main()
