Meaningful in this case means that they're not entirely opaque, as was the case for the traditional [xpconnect wrapped native prototype] XPCWN protos and constructors. You can do things like "new contentWindow.XMLHttpRequest", and I believe you can access constants, properties, and methods. The goal of Xrays is that waiving should be unnecessary unless you actually want to see content expandos, so we want them to behave as naturally as possible. Anyway, this is getting off-topic for this thread. I'm happy to talk about it more in another thread or on IRC though. ;-) Cheers, bholley _______________________________________________ dev-platform mailing list dev-platform@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-platform
