libseed-list Fwd: [Bug 610317] New: Provide a builtin dir() function

[Tim Horton <hortont424 gmail com>]

Do people think this belongs on the Seed object (Seed.dir()) or should it be global? We were trying not to clutter up the global namespace, but making it global would probably make it more obvious for people coming from elsewhere.

Just like in Python, this is doable in _javascript_ easily:

function dir(object)
{
   methods = [];
   for (z in object) if (typeof(z) != 'number') methods.push(z);
   return methods.join(', ');
}
