1544936 - Support sending queries (messages with replies) for JSWindowActor

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Core :: DOM: Content Processes, defect, P2)

Description

[Nika Layzell [:nika] (ni? for response)]

This adds a single new method, which acts like sendAsyncMessage, but also returns a promise. This promise is fulfilled when the promise returned from the receiveMessage callback is resolved.

partial interface JSWindowActor {
  [Throws]
  Promise<any> sendQuery(DOMString messageName,
                         optional any obj,
                         optional any transfers);
}
