Hi there. I don't know if this mailing list is the right place to post
this message. I'd like to discuss a choice made in Prototype.
I have a problem with the Event.fire function and the event.memo
property. Prototype 1.6.1 says
event.memo = memo || { }; // line 4070
So any memo value
The reason for this design choice was to avoid the following
altogether:
if (event.memo) {
foo = event.memo.foo;
}
and allow this instead:
foo = event.memo.foo;
There are memory costs involved with this design choice, but these can
easily be mitigated by passing in a value to
Tobie,
If that's so, then we should explictly forbid memo not being an object,
shoudln't we? Or at least make this crystal-clear in the docs. The
current docs only state memo: metadata for the event.
Otherwise, you can pull my commit b1bfdd5, fresh off the current main
master :-)
