Which version of Lua to compile LuaExpat for use with WireShark

I use Wireshark 4.0.5 and I want to use LuaExpat library with Lua dissector in order to parse configuration files. I have compiled Lua, then compiled expat, then compiled luaexpat (requires lua54.dll). The Lua scripts I'm using works fine from a command prompt but it crashes when used with Wireshark.

I think it crashes under Wireshark because lua54.dll compiled on my windows machine is not compatible.

My question is how am I supposed to compile luaexpat for use with WireShark ?
