lua_setmetatable's return type

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next] [Date Index] [Thread Index]


Hi,
A very valid question was raised on #lua this morning.
 Why is lua_setmetatable()'s return type 'int' rather than 'void'?
My own 10 second scan of the function in the 5.1 source suggests that it can
only ever return 1 and as such, should probably just be void. This seems to
remain the case in 5.2-beta
