Everyone who constructs an Object must now pass a prototype object when
applicable. There's still a fair amount of code that passes something
fetched from the Interpreter, but this brings us closer to being able
to detach prototypes from Interpreter eventually.
In order to complete a relative URL, we need a Document. Fix this by
giving XMLHttpRequest a pointer to its window object. Then we can go
from the window to the document, and then we're home free. :^)
This patch adds very basic XMLHttpRequest support to LibWeb. Here's an
example that currently works:
var callback = function() { alert(this.responseText); }
var xhr = new XMLHttpRequest();
xhr.addEventListener("load", callback);
xhr.open("GET", "http://serenityos.org/~kling/test/example.txt");
xhr.send();
There are many limitations and bugs, but it's pretty dang awesome that
we have XHR. :^)
