Implement strict type checking in js bindings for WebGL functions

• Component: WebGL
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Zhenyao Mo]

An exception will be thrown in case of type mismatch for Wrapper types and DomString, the same behavior as for overloaded functions.

patch

Tested both in Safari and Chromium.

Forget to mention: all the current demos run fine after this change.  The test has been added in khronos already and was copied over using kbr's script.

Good work overall. A few minor issues.

WebCore/bindings/js/JSWebGLRenderingContextCustom.cpp:171
 +          setDOMException(exec, TYPE_MISMATCH_ERR);
In the JSC custom bindings and in CodeGeneratorJS.pm I think you should use "return throwVMTypeError(exec)", which is used for the overloaded method handling's fall-through case. The code generator is used to generate bindings to objects which aren't strictly part of the DOM (like the TypedArrays, for example), so I think it is more appropriate to throw an exception that is not DOM-specific.


WebCore/bindings/scripts/CodeGeneratorJS.pm:1967
 +                              # an TYPE_MISMATCH_ERR is thrown instead of casting to null.
See above about using throwVMTypeError instead.


WebCore/bindings/scripts/CodeGeneratorV8.pm:1249
 +              # an TYPE_MISMATCH_ERR is thrown instead of casting to null.
I think this should use V8Proxy::throwTypeError to match the behavior of the overloaded function generation.


WebCore/bindings/v8/custom/V8WebGLRenderingContextCustom.cpp:231
 +          return throwError(TYPE_MISMATCH_ERR);
I think the V8 custom bindings should use V8Proxy::throwTypeError per above.

revised patch: responding to kbr's review

Changed from TYPE_MIS_MATCH to TypeError.

Again, tested in Safari and Chromium.

Incorrect comment. It throws TypeError, not TYPE_MISMATCH_ERR.

Looks fine. Minor grammatical comments, not strictly necessary to fix.

WebCore/bindings/scripts/CodeGeneratorJS.pm:1967
 +                              # an TypeError is thrown instead of casting to null.
an -> a

WebCore/bindings/scripts/CodeGeneratorV8.pm:1249
 +              # an TypeError is thrown instead of casting to null.
an -> a

I'll fix it on the landing patch.
