> I still don't understand what the point of this call is under any circumstances when you can get the internal fields out of your object
The first pass weak handle callback can call only a couple v8 functions (i.e. reset the handle and set up the second-pass callback) and is not supposed to pull internal fields from the object. More v8 functions can be called in the second pass callback, but that callback is only called from the message pump, which makes it unusable for long-running scripts that don't get a chance to pump the message loop in the middle of the script. This leaves us only with packing everything into the weak callback parameter, which unnecessarily duplicates these internal fields in the parameter and requires an extra structure to maintain within the application and synchronize them between the object and weak handle parameters. -- -- v8-users mailing list v8-users@googlegroups.com http://groups.google.com/group/v8-users --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "v8-users" group.
