NodeFilterConditionCustom.cpp acceptNode() is one such example. Relating this to bug 27640 which is the inverse of this mapping. 478322 1 loic 2011-10-05 07:10:53 -0700 Hi, I think this bug is related to bug 26147 . I'm trying to fix it and I would appreciate if you have an advice on how to proceed. Do you think it should be an additional field to the Document class ? If so do you think it should be set when the Document constructor is called or attached to it later on ? There are many approach to this problem and any kind of guidance would be most appreciated.

Could you provide a bit more context as to what the solution was and why you believe it's incorrect? (Although I filed this bug, I haven't worked in this area in a long time.) 478723 5 abarth 2011-10-05 15:15:26 -0700 The reason this bug is invalid is because Document is a DOM-layer object and JSDOMWindow is a bindings-layer object. It's generally not a good idea to have a DOM-layer object have a pointer to a bindings-layer object. Instead, we ended up storing the pointer in the JSDocument wrapper object, which is a bindings-layer object. 479019 6 loic 2011-10-06 01:22:15 -0700 Thanks for explaining, now I understand. I'm still unsure if this will help in the context of bug 26147, but it's a different topic.
