The lifetime of DOM objects is managed by the SpiderMonkey Garbage //! Collector. A rooted DOM object implementing the interface `Foo` is traced //! as follows: //! //! 1. The GC calls `_trace` defined in `FooBinding` during the marking //! phase. (This happens through `JSClass.trace` for non-proxy bindings, and //! through `ProxyTraps.trace` otherwise.) //! 2. `_trace` calls `Foo::trace()` (an implementation of `JSTraceable`, //! defined in `InheritTypes.rs`). //! 3. `Foo::trace()` calls `Foo::encode()` (an implementation of `Encodable`). //! This implementation is typically derived by a `#[deriving(Encodable)]` //! annotation on the Rust struct. //! 4. For all fields (except those wrapped in `Untraceable`), `Foo::encode()` //! calls `encode()` on the field. //! //! For example, for fields of type `JS`, `JS::encode()` calls //! `trace_reflector()`. //! 6. `trace_reflector()` calls `trace_object()` with the `JSObject` for the //! reflector. //! 7. `trace_object()` calls `JS_CallTracer()` to notify the GC, which will //! add the object to the graph, and will trace that object as well. use dom::bindings::js::JS; use dom::bindings::utils::{Reflectable, Reflector}; use js::jsapi::{JSObject, JSTracer, JS_CallTracer, JSTRACE_OBJECT}; use js::jsval::JSVal; use libc; use std::mem; use std::cell::{Cell, RefCell}; use serialize::{Encodable, Encoder}; // IMPORTANT: We rely on the fact that we never attempt to encode DOM objects using // any encoder but JSTracer.
