We need to fix TYPE_CASTS_BASE. It’s kind of dumb that we need one expression for -> and one for . in every single invocation. We can use *(x) in the macro to dereference the pointer instead. We should go make that change globally to make every single use of the macro simpler.

I agree your suggestion. It looks it would be nicer to file a new bug to handle this suggestion. I'm going to file a bug for this.

Bug 136809 is about .get(); doesn’t sound like the same thing to me. Maybe you filed a different bug about the -> vs. dot thing?

Darin, now I understand that you suggested to dereference a pointer in TYPE_CAST_BASE using *(x) use, and then we can adjust it to WebKit globally, right ?

If so, Bug 136809 will handle it. If bug title is a little strange, I will change the title when I prepare a patch for the bug.

Great, looking forward to seeing it.

Now I have very urgent local work, So, I will be able to prepare the patch after going back to my home. :) Please wait for my patch !

[Darin Adler]

Absolutely. I will wait patiently. I may not have a chance to look at it for a while since I have more patch reviewing time on weekends.
