Anne van Kesteren: > So a.f(1.23); throws in the example because the method is overloaded? > I.e. it would not throw if the method did not accept an A object as > argument? Yes. If an operation is not overloaded, then you don’t get TypeErrors thrown because you pass arguments of incorrect types; they are all converted to the appropriate type by the “converting an IDL value to an ECMAScript value” definitions in #es-type-mapping. If an operation is overloaded, then the overload resolution algorithm is more strict about the types of values passed as argument. (See the “If R contains more than one entry:” step of the algorithm.) > If so, I suppose that works great, thanks! It seems I didn’t actually modify the overload resolution algorithm to take [AllowAny] into account.
