This is great. It will dramatically reduce the amount of handwritten binding code. Please let me know if you need any help with or run into any issues with the WebGL bindings. There are some tricky overloads there between arrays and array-like types that may be non-trivial to handle. -Ken _______________________________________________ webkit-dev mailing list webkit-dev@lists.webkit.org http://lists.webkit.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/webkit-dev
