Answering myself after the trip home, I take it that the answer is basically that the information I want is not useful when writing the bindings (since as you say any event can in theory happen in any target, be it naturally or synthetically), and that I should simply collect all event classes defined and add them as "this class might possible receive this event" where appropriate in the class hierarchy? Another question would be whether we maintain the canonical list somewhere (perhaps in DOMWindow.idl ) or if we are supposed to construct it ourselves manually. > > Xan > >> >> Adam >> > _______________________________________________ webkit-dev mailing list webkit-dev@lists.webkit.org http://lists.webkit.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/webkit-dev
