I've been bugging the V8 crowd to add this to their engine: http://code.google.com/p/v8/issues/detail?id=264 so I'll bug you all to add it to Nitro :-). They have a small patch ready and I've tested it successfully, so maybe we can get some friendly competition here :-D. A bit of background: as I stated on the V8 bug report, I'm the guy that originally pestered Brendan Eich back in 2003 to add this capability to Spidermonkey: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=196097 Since he's done that, it's also been included in the Java-based Rhino engine. I've also proposed this extension to the ECMA committee. I'll attach 2 files to this bug report. One is the proposal that my business partner and I made to the ECMA committee to add 'noSuchMethod' to ECMAScript. The other is a pretty comprehensive set of tests, both one from Brendan and a more complex one from my business partner Scott. There is a pretty compelling case for adding this to your interpreter and that is spelled out in the ECMA proposal document. Thanks for your consideration!

I've had success with such bribery over on the Mozilla project (and, yes, have paid it off - seriously...) :-). In addition, I'm willing to help in authoring tests, etc. My C skills are very lacking (its been quite a number of years), but I do JS all day long, every day. Having this feature would allow me to significantly reduce my code size and complexity, so I'm very eager to help make this reality :-). Cheers, - Bill 169528 7 pmuellr 2009-12-07 16:40:17 -0800 A proposal for "catch-all proxies" has just been posted to the ES Wiki: http://wiki.ecmascript.org/doku.php?id=strawman:proxies 195698 8 oliver 2010-03-03 11:51:18 -0800 __noSuchMethod__ is an effectively dead extension in spidermonkey, it is not being proposed for standardisation. To quote Brendan: "http://wiki.ecmascript.org/doku.php?id=harmony:proxies is the future" 195699 9 brendan 2010-03-03 11:54:05 -0800 BTW, http://wiki.ecmascript.org/doku.php?id=harmony:proxies is implemented (useful for spec improvement, necessary by agreement in TC39 -- so a JSC impl would be helpful) for SpiderMonkey, see https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=546590 This will probably land soon, and wind up in the next major Firefox release. /be 38825 2009-08-31 11:44:24 -0700 2009-08-31 11:44:24 -0700 A proposal to the ECMA committee to add 'noSuchMethod' support
