MakeCallback() has been optimized a great deal in v0.11 and is still the preferred way to call into JS land. Using Function::Call() is perfectly okay but you'll need to handle exceptions yourself and it's not compatible with domains. > In addition, is there someplace other than this thread I can go for this > information?

We don't really have a centralized place right now with details about internals. If you want to write up some notes on the wiki, you have my blessing. If you feel the documentation for add-on writers is incomplete or unclear, we take pull requests. :-) (Joking aside, great documentation is a community effort. Leaving it to core developers to write documentation will likely result in an info dump full of technical minutiae that still misses critical details. When you're working with something on a daily basis, it's hard to know what others don't know.) -- -- Job Board: http://jobs.nodejs.org/ Posting guidelines: https://github.com/joyent/node/wiki/Mailing-List-Posting-Guidelines You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "nodejs" group.
