I've been thinking about this some more, and the requirement that the caller be able to tell apart the NSResolver returning a String and some other object that has a toString() method is actually a bit of a pain. For example, in Gecko a C++ caller into this API would just get back a string object (basically the result of |returnValue + ""| or so). Telling where this string came from would actually be pretty difficult in this case. Things get even worse if you allow non-JS implementations of NSResolver, because at that point the requirement doesn't even make sense. Is there a strong reason not to just stringify whatever the NSResolver returns? It seems like for compliant NSResolvers this won't make a difference, right? -BorisReceived on Wednesday, 12 March 2008 04:59:06 GMT
