WebKit IDL does not use exception syntax

• Component: DOM
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Erik Arvidsson]

WebIDL defines a special syntax for exception interfaces.

http://www.w3.org/TR/WebIDL/#idl-exceptions

which looks like

exception Name { ... }

We currently do not have a special syntax for this and we just use interface. For example, our interface for DOMException looks like this:

interface DOMException { ... }

http://trac.webkit.org/browser/trunk/Source/WebCore/dom/DOMCoreException.idl

when it should look like this

exception DOMException { ... }

http://www.w3.org/TR/dom/#exception-domexception

Sorry, this typo slipped through the rebase dance.
