Details

testcase: Open a web console in the browser. In the JSTerm enter: var a = { b: "hi", __noSuchMethod__: function() { return a; } }; a.d.apply(a, []); receive: TypeError: a.d is undefined This works if we just invoke a.d() by itself.
should be easy to add that as a test case to: http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/js/src/tests/js1_5/extensions/no-such-method.js or split off a separate test.
OS: Mac OS X → All
Hardware: x86 → All
build rev: http://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/rev/e42d81b3e0cc Mac OS X 10.6.5, but I expect this is cross platform.
(In reply to comment #0) > a.d.apply(a, []); a.d isn't being called directly here, so __noSuchMethod__ can't be invoked. To have it behave you want, we'd need a catchall getter (bug 312116) on "a" that returned a callable function. I don't think we can reasonably expect __noSuchMethod__ to work this way.
