nick_sherman, thanks for your reply.
You are correct but you have to build and install the BitOp plug-in on the machine that is running Corona.
I was able to build it, but I am having the above error when I try to install.
I’m pretty sure the point of the Corona plugin is that you don’t have to do that - all the heavy lifting has been done.
You add the plugin to build.settings, require it and you’re away.
nick_sherman,
Thank you and all that helped , that worked. For some reason I miss understood the instructions.
