Description Andy Estes 2015-03-09 16:00:08 PDT 
If I create a constant in IDL, such as:

interface MyInterface {
    const unsigned short myConstant = 0;
}

The generated bindings will add these to the prototype like this:

{ "myConstant", DontDelete | ReadOnly | ConstantInteger, NoIntrinsic, (intptr_t)(0), (intptr_t) (0) },

But the JSMyInterface class will not have a myConstant, meaning that I might need to define my own in parallel with the IDL definition. It would be nice if C++ constants were generated automatically.
