Parsing ArrayBuffer from Script

[Michael Wielpütz]

Hi,

currently I'm trying to read an ArrayBuffer, resulting from Javascript, inside a C++ application. For testing purposes I stripped the code down to the following:

v8::Isolate* isolate = v8::Isolate::GetCurrent();

v8::Local<v8::Context> context = v8::Context::New(isolate);

v8::Context::Scope contextScope(context);

// the mini "script"

v8::Handle<v8::String> source = v8::String::New("new ArrayBuffer(3)");

v8::Handle<v8::Script> script = v8::Script::Compile(source);

v8::TryCatch trycatch;

v8::Handle<v8::Value>  result = script->Run();

if (result.IsEmpty())

{

  v8::Handle<v8::Value> excep = trycatch.Exception();

  v8::String::AsciiValue excepStr(excep);

  BOOST_REQUIRE_MESSAGE(false, *excepStr);

}

The result variable is always empty and I receive the following message:

ReferenceError: ArrayBuffer is not defined

If I replace the line 

v8::Handle<v8::String> source = v8::String::New("new ArrayBuffer(3)");

by

v8::Handle<v8::String> source = v8::String::New("new Array(3)");

the result variable holds the correct value.

Any ideas what I'm doing wrong here?

Thanks in advance,

Michael
