Another way of looking at the problem: should there be an API to determine if an object implements a particular WebIDL interface? I hope we agree the answer is yes... In that case, what would we call it? Can we call it something that doesn't sound like "instanceOf", and explain with a straight face why it should be used instead of instanceOf, and expect that authors will actually use it instead of just using instanceOf?
Rob -- Jesus called them together and said, “You know that the rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their high officials exercise authority over them. Not so with you. Instead, whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant, and whoever wants to be first must be your slave — just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.” [Matthew 20:25-28] _______________________________________________ dev-platform mailing list dev-platform@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-platform
