I propose changing the resultIndex attribute from "short" to "unsigned
long". Specifically, the IDL would be:
SpeechRecognitionEvent : Event {
readonly attribute unsigned long resultIndex;
I propose this for two reasons:
- Capacity: short is limited to a maximum of 32767. It's not totally
inconceivable that a very very long continuous dictation may have more
results than this.
- Consistency: all the other length attributes in the IDL are unsigned long.
If there's no disagreement, I'll update this in the spec on Monday.
