// NSObject (WebScripting) -----------------------------------------------------
/*
Classes may implement one or more methods in WebScripting to export interfaces
to WebKit's JavaScript environment.
By default, no properties or functions are exported. A class must implement
+isKeyExcludedFromWebScript: and/or +isSelectorExcludedFromWebScript: to
expose selected properties and methods, respectively, to JavaScript.
Access to exported properties is done using KVC -- specifically, the following
KVC methods:
- (void)setValue:(id)value forKey:(NSString *)key
- (id)valueForKey:(NSString *)key
Clients may also intercept property set/get operations that are made by the
scripting environment for properties that are not exported. This is done using
the KVC methods:
- (void)setValue:(id)value forUndefinedKey:(NSString *)key
- (id)valueForUndefinedKey:(NSString *)key
Similarly, clients may intercept method invocations that are made by the
scripting environment for methods that are not exported. This is done using
the method:
- (id)invokeUndefinedMethodFromWebScript:(NSString *)name withArguments:(NSArray *)args;
If clients need to raise an exception in the script environment
they can call [WebScriptObject throwException:]. Note that throwing an
exception using this method will only succeed if the method that throws the exception
is being called within the scope of a script invocation.
Not all methods are exposed. Only those methods whose parameters and return
type meets the export criteria are exposed. Valid types are Objective-C instances
and scalars. Other types are not allowed.
Types will be converted automatically between JavaScript and Objective-C in
the following manner:
JavaScript ObjC
---------- ----------
null => nil
undefined => WebUndefined
number => NSNumber
boolean => CFBoolean
string => NSString
object => id
The object => id conversion occurs as follows: if the object wraps an underlying
Objective-C object (i.e., if it was created by a previous ObjC => JavaScript conversion),
then the underlying Objective-C object is returned. Otherwise, a new WebScriptObject
is created and returned.
The above conversions occur only if the declared ObjC type is an object type.
For primitive types like int and char, a numeric cast is performed.
ObjC JavaScript
---- ----------
NSNull => null
nil => undefined
WebUndefined => undefined
CFBoolean => boolean
NSNumber => number
NSString => string
NSArray => array object
WebScriptObject => object
The above conversions occur only if the declared ObjC type is an object type.
For primitive type like int and char, a numeric cast is performed.

@class WebScriptObject
@discussion WebScriptObjects are used to wrap script objects passed from
script environments to Objective-C. WebScriptObjects cannot be created
directly. In normal uses of WebKit, you gain access to the script
environment using the "windowScriptObject" method on WebView.
The following KVC methods are commonly used to access properties of the
WebScriptObject:
- (void)setValue:(id)value forKey:(NSString *)key
- (id)valueForKey:(NSString *)key
As it possible to remove attributes from web script objects, the following
additional method augments the basic KVC methods:
- (void)removeWebScriptKey:(NSString *)name;
Also, since the sparse array access allowed in script objects doesn't map well
to NSArray, the following methods can be used to access index based properties:
- (id)webScriptValueAtIndex:(unsigned)index;
- (void)setWebScriptValueAtIndex:(unsigned)index value:(id)value;
