Binary Key support is specified in [1]:
"
A key has an associated type which is one of: number, date, string, *binary*, or array.
"

Attached patch (v1) Patch: Binary Key Support (obsolete) — Splinter Review
This is the last brick of IDB v2 features:
1. The input type could be either ArrayBuffer or the view of ArrayBuffer(TypedArray or DataView)[1].
2. The output type should always be ArrayBuffer according to [2], the discussion in [3] and the implementation in Chromium[4].
3. The String key encoding is adopted with new tag named *eBinary* to support the variable length of the binary data and to ensure that these binary keys are comparable/sortable in the same type and among different types.

Hi Jan,

May I have your review for this approach?

Thanks!

Looks very good to me, but please update the big comment in Key.cpp to mention how we treat binary keys (just in case someone dares to touch this code in future :)

These three don't have to be initialized here.

Consider to create a C++ template for this and use it here if it looks better to you.

Thanks for reminding me to keep codes as compact as possible in mind.

After further comparision, I think the following one will be better than creating a template:
In Key.h:
  void
  EncodeBinary(JSObject* aObject, bool aIsViewObject, uint8_t aTypeOffset);

In Key::EncodeJSValInternal():
    if (JS_IsArrayBufferObject(obj)) {
      EncodeBinary(obj, /* aIsViewObject */ false, aTypeOffset);
      return NS_OK;
    }

    if (JS_IsArrayBufferViewObject(obj)) {
      EncodeBinary(obj, /* aIsViewObject */ true, aTypeOffset);
      return NS_OK;
    }
Address suggestions in comment 5.

"++aPos" or "aPos++" ?

"++aPos" is the right one to match the same logic of

Sorry for not mentioning this when replying review. :)
