Bug 60022 – IndexedDB open (database) should fail if name is null

• Status: RESOLVED
• Resolution: FIXED
• Component: New Bugs

[Mark Pilgrim (Google)]

Original test: http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla2.0/source/dom/indexedDB/test/test_open_empty_db.html?force=1

Expected result: webkitIndexedDB.open(null, 'foo') should throw a webkitIDBDatabaseException.NON_TRANSIENT_ERR

Actual result: no exception thrown

Citation: http://dvcs.w3.org/hg/IndexedDB/raw-file/tip/Overview.html#widl-IDBFactory-open states that name can not be null. Mozilla throws NON_TRANSIENT_ERR in response to this condition.

I'm happy to r+ this patch (seems simple enough), but it would be nice if someone actually working on indexeddb took a look.

Mark, do you want to file a w3 bug saying that the spec should be updated to reflect throwing NON_TRANSIENT_ERR in this case?

Tony, do you know if [ConvertNullToNullString] has downsides that might have caused it to be omitted initially?

I don't know of any downsides.  I suspect it was just an oversight.
