Subject: [PATCH 2/2] Remove lookup_transparent_type lang hook
Date: Wed, 21 Jan 2026 17:51:12 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260121-cp-remove-junk-v1-2-0999e81d866d@tromey.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260121-cp-remove-junk-v1-0-0999e81d866d@tromey.com>
C++ was the only user of the lookup_transparent_type lang hook, so it
can be removed entirely. basic_lookup_transparent_type and its helper
function are renamed as appropriate.
