Nice! This is not something I had considered. Aside from freezing
Array.prototype, I can only really think of one solution: not use an array.
var create = Object.create,
freeze = Object.freeze,
push = Function.prototype.call.bind(Array.prototype.push);
function makeTable() {
var array = create(null);
return freeze({
add: function(v) { push(array, v); },
store: function(i, v) { array[i >>> 0] = v; },
get: function(i) { return array[i >>> 0]; }
});
}
I suppose the array isn't really needed since we're not using methods inherited
from Array.prototype. Downside: Browsers won't know to optimize the object as
an array.
(Side note: Mark's original post was in the context of frozen Array.prototype
on non-compliant implementations which allow writing to inherited non-writable
properties. I find this a fun exercise without frozen Array.prototype, though.)
