Removed the `lu_byte ctb(int)` overload from ltvalue.h as it was unused.
All ctb() calls in the codebase use LuaT enum values, which call the
`LuaT ctb(LuaT)` overload. This simplifies the API and removes dead code.
Analysis:
- Searched codebase for all ctb() calls
- All calls use LuaT::* enum values (SHRSTR, LNGSTR, etc.)
- Calls like ctb(s->getType()) pass LuaT (from GCBase::getType())
- No integer literals or LUA_T* macros passed to ctb()
Changes:
- src/objects/ltvalue.h:318 - Removed ctb(int) overload
Testing:
- Build: ✅ Success (no compilation errors)
- Tests: ✅ All pass ("final OK !!!")
- Performance: ~4.46s avg (within normal variance)
Removed unused legacy helper functions and lu_byte overloads:
1. val_() - Old Value accessor (4 overloads) - 0 usages
2. valraw() - Old Value accessor wrapper (2 overloads) - 0 usages
3. rawtt_byte() - lu_byte version of rawtt - 0 usages
4. ttypetag_byte() - lu_byte version of ttypetag - 0 usages
5. checktag(const TValue* o, lu_byte t) - lu_byte overload - 0 usages
6. settt_(TValue* o, lu_byte t) - lu_byte overload - 0 usages
All current callers use LuaT enum types, making these legacy lu_byte
overloads and wrappers unnecessary. This continues the modernization
from Phase 122 Part 1 (removing ctb(int) overload).
Analysis:
- Searched codebase for usage of each function
- All are either completely unused or have LuaT-based alternatives
- All current checktag() calls use LuaT arguments
- All current settt_() calls use LuaT arguments
Changes:
- src/objects/ltvalue.h: Removed 6 legacy functions/overloads
- Total lines removed: 10
Testing:
- Build: ✅ Success (no compilation errors)
- Tests: ✅ All pass ("final OK !!!")
- Performance: ~4.52s avg (within normal variance)
