In general issues with GC handling are security bugs, but in CC they lead to leaks.
This is not the case in Servo, though; we should be foolproof for both. I'm definitely not willing to compromise on memory safety. :)
Blink doesn't have a collector for refcounted stuff and they are trying to add Oilpan to GC C++ stuff, but at least in the first phase that will not fix the issues where they can't implement complicated APIs where edges go from C++ to JS and back. Implementing such APIs in Gecko is no issue.
I don't think that's a problem in our scheme in Servo either. Patrick _______________________________________________ dev-servo mailing list dev-servo@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-servo
