Good day, ajg, I don't think you can (and should be able to) create v8::Array with ObjectTemplate.
However, it's easy to install Array functions to any kind of object---ECMAScript array functions were intentionally designed to work with generic objects---all you need is to add a length property. Simple test would be to do something like [].forEach.call(yourobject, args). To use convenient syntax yourobject.forEach just add Array.prototype.forEach and other functions to prototype of your object (see PrototypTemplate) or an object directly (1st option is preferable). hth and yours, anton.
