Thanks!
Looks like the problem is in the use of the toString function in your
original example:
>> function f() {
>> java.lang.System.out.println(toString(arguments));
>> }
>> f (1, 2, 3);
In that code fragment, toString() is being called as a standalone
function, not as a method on an object.
For operating on arguments, I generally make local references to the
Array.prototype methods, then call them on the arguments object.
For example:
var slice = Array.prototype.slice;
function foo( /* ... */ ) {
// make a copy of arguments, except that it's a true Array instance
var args = slice.call( arguments, 0 );
args instanceof Array; // true
print( args + '' ); // cast args as a string and print
}
Hope this helps!
