(Core :: DOM: Core & HTML, defect)

Description

[Boris Zbarsky [:bzbarsky]]

http://dev.w3.org/2006/webapi/WebIDL/#idl-stringifiers says:

  As a shorthand, if the stringifier keyword is declared using an operation with
  no identifier, then the operation’s return type and argument list can be
  omitted.

And gives this example:

  stringifier;

Implement parsing of the "stringifier;" shorthand.

-----------------------------------------------------------------

Please add a parser test for this.  Test at least that 'stringifier;' works, that two 'stringifier;'s don't, and that a 'stringifier;' and a 'stringifier whatever();' don't work.

Nice catch.  That's not being prevented.  Will add that.
