js: buildDroid() change
Posted: 07 Feb 2012, 23:57
The droid type parameter to buildDroid is no longer necessary in master. It remains as it used to be in 3.1, since I am no longer doing any more changes to the javascript code in the 3.1 branch. I recommend that more advanced javascript coding takes place against master snapshots instead. The reason for this is that some changes to the API will require larger changes under the hood (as in this case), and I do not want to make those in a stable branch. You can continue to pass a droid type parameter for compatibility with 3.1, or pass in 'null' (recommended for master, as this parameter may later be reused for something else).
I hope that we can settle on a good, stable javascript API in good time for 3.2. There is still much left to do, though.
