Details

How do I make my changes to RDF datasource persistent (serialize to
the .rdf)? I thought that datasource.Flush() would do it.

Does it work in JavaScript function? The console said "Flush()" is not a
function (instead of crashing) in my Aug-19-99 NT build.

Anyway, you can try it out by uncommenting the ds.Flush() line in
chrome/global/content/default/strres.js and clicking on
"QA| Languages|en-US".

Try it this way:

ds.QueryInterface(Components.interfaces.nsIRDFRemoteDataSource).Flush();
Yup, that does it! But, why would the flush() function live in the "remote"
data source?
This thread eventually ends up discussing why we decided to do this:

Tao, if this is working, can you INVALID the bug?

You own this bug; you need to INVLID it. But, I had changed the QA contact to
me so I can verify it.

Thanks
