            Bug ID: 199452
           Summary: WebKit has too many ways to stringily things
           Product: WebKit
           Version: WebKit Local Build
          Hardware: Unspecified
                OS: Unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Web Template Framework
          Assignee: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
          Reporter: darin at apple.com

WebKit has too many different ways to stringify things. Here are the ones I have found so far:

std::ostream
WTF::makeString (part of WTF’s StringConcatenate)
WTF::ValueToString

WTF::LogArgument (part of WTF::Logger)
WTF::PrintStream dump functions
WTF::TextStream

I plan to remove WTF::ValueToString first, changing the only client (POD trees) to use TextStream instead. I would welcome other ideas for how to get rid of this redundancy.
