589960 - produce structured JSON type in addition to string

Status: RESOLVED INACTIVE

(Mozilla Labs :: Doctor JS, defect)

Description

[Dave Herman [:dherman]]

The |type| property of each entry in the JSON is a structured string literal. This should be structured JSON data instead, e.g.:

    { kind: "function",
      returnType: "void",
      argTypes: ["number", "number"] }

instead of

    "void function(number, number)"

We should still include the nice pretty-printed string with a property name like |prettyType| or |formattedType| or |signature| or some such, but it should be changed to the ES4-style:

    "function(number, number) : void"
