A v8 byte array type would be nice (which had, say, some toString() methods for various encodings). I know google gears has binary Blobs, the XMLHttpRequest level 2 has a ByteArray (but doesn't specify what it would do), I think AIR and various other systems (?) also have it. It seems like a reasonable thing to have in v8. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ v8-users mailing list [email protected] http://groups.google.com/group/v8-users -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
