[webkit-dev] Embedding JavaScriptCore - Creating new object types ???

[Martin Wengenmayer]

Hi Maciej and Darin,
that works like a dream. Thank you very much for the fast help. That  
was the only thing I couldn't figure out by myself.  Now I can replace  
SpideMonkey with JavaScriptCore in my app. :-)

Bye,
Martin
