-- Compatibility layer for bitwise operations

-- First try the bit32 lib
-- Lua 5.3 has it with compat enabled
-- Lua 5.2 has it by default
if _G.bit32 then
	return _G.bit32;
else
	-- Lua 5.1 may have it as a standalone module that can be installed
	local ok, bitop = pcall(require, "bit32")
	if ok then
		return bitop;
	end
end

do
	-- Lua 5.3 and 5.4 would be able to use native infix operators
	local ok, bitop = pcall(require, "util.bit53")
	if ok then
		return bitop;
	end
end

do
	-- Lastly, try the LuaJIT bitop library
	local ok, bitop = pcall(require, "bit")
	if ok then
		return bitop;
