Hi, thanks for reporting this bug.
As there is no maintainer for this package I added the committers in CC.

(Please set the status to 'assigned' if you are working on it)

CC: (none) => cazzaniga.sandro

José, I think you recently built this package in Cauldron.  Would you mind looking at this for Mageia 1?

The version in cauldron needs also a rebuild

Ok, tolua++-1.0.93-4.mga1 in updates_testing.

Status: NEW => ASSIGNED

I'm trying the example from
http://www.gamedev.net/topic/462040-tolua-tutorial/

I've created the character.cpp file, but I'm getting ...
tolua++ -o tolua_character.cpp -H tolua_character.h -n character character.cpp
tolua++: symbol lookup error: tolua++: undefined symbol: tolua_open

Am I missing something, or is there a problem in the package?

This is the exact error that was fixed in the Mandriva package, according to the changelog entry I cited in the initial bug report.  The changes in the Mandriva package need to be done to our package as well.  The diff is here:
http://svn.mandriva.com/viewvc/packages/cooker/tolua++/current/SPECS/tolua++.spec?r1=615234&r2=769594

Using tolua++-1.0.93-4.mga1.src.rpm and a slightly modified command

$ tolua++ -o tolua_character.cpp -H tolua++.h -n character character.cpp
[dave@hodgins source]$ gcc -o tolua_character tolua_character.cpp
In file included from tolua_character.cpp:11:0:
tolua++.h:7:1: error: âTOLUA_APIâ does not name a type
followed by a bunch of errors that appear to be caused by this error.

$ cat tolua++.h
/*
** Lua binding: character
** Generated automatically by tolua++-1.0.92 on Fri Mar  2 23:04:50 2012.
*/

/* Exported function */
TOLUA_API int  tolua_character_open (lua_State* tolua_S);

Looks to me like the type is clearly integer, so I don't
know what the error really is. c++ is not in my programming
experience.

Using Daves example..

created character.cpp with the following contents

 // your real class definition
class Character {
public:
   Character();
   void setPosition(int x, int y);
   int  getXPosition() const;
   int  getYPosition() const;

private:
   int _x, _y;
};
// tolua class prototype
class Character
{
   Character();
   void setPosition(int x, int y);
   int  getXPosition() const;
   int  getYPosition() const;
};

# tolua++ -o tolua_character.cpp -H tolua_character.h -n character character.cpp
