Why does the svg spec differentiate between unsettable and readonly attributes? -


section 4.5.1 of svg 1.1 spec (version 2) describes svgelement interface--the 'base class' of svg objects. says:

interface svgelement : element {            attribute domstring id setraises(domexception);            attribute domstring xmlbase setraises(domexception);   readonly attribute svgsvgelement ownersvgelement;   readonly attribute svgelement viewportelement; };

attributes:

  • id (domstring)

    • the value of ‘id’ attribute on given element, or empty string if ‘id’ not present. exceptions on setting

      • domexception, code no_modification_allowed_err raised on attempt change value of read attribute.

  • xmlbase (domstring)

    • corresponds attribute ‘xml:base’ on given element.

      exceptions on setting

      • domexception, code no_modification_allowed_err raised on attempt change value of read attribute.

  • ownersvgelement (readonly svgsvgelement)

    the nearest ancestor ‘svg’ element. null if given element outermost svg element.

  • viewportelement (readonly svgelement)

    the element established current viewport. often, nearest ancestor ‘svg’ element. null if given element outermost svg element.

so none of these attributes writeable. why 2 of them raise exceptions if try write them? other 2 not raise exceptions? difference between 'readonly' , 'setraises'?

setraises doesn't mean attribute isn't writeable. means setting may raise domexception. in svg dom, attributes not readonly annotated way.

in case of svgelement.id, not aware of situation in setting id throw exception. perhaps, in svg implementations, there rare situations in dom in state doesn't allow id changed. don't think need worry that.

as far readonly attributes go. implementation whether ignores attempts set it, or throws exception.

commonjs - How to write a typescript definition file for a node module that exports a function? -

consider, toml node module can use: // toml.d.ts declare module toml { export function parse(value:string):any; } declare module "toml" { export = toml; } then: /// <reference path="../../../../../defs/toml/toml.d.ts"/> import toml = require('toml'); toml.parse(...); however, node module export single function, such 'glob' ( https://github.com/isaacs/node-glob ). the node usage of module be: var glob = require("glob") glob("*.js", {}, callback(err, files) { ... }); you'd naively expect this: // glob.d.ts declare function globs(paths:string, options:any, callback:{(err:any, files:string[]):void; ...but because typescripts 'import' semantics bit strange, seems can use 'import .. = require()' statement alias modules . trying call: /// <reference path="../../../../../defs/glob/glob.d.ts"/> import blog = require('glob'); results in: error ts2072: mod...
