v8::Context::GetCurrent()->Global()

[jas]

I have run into a problem and have tried several thing to resolve the problem. The following code:

if (v8::Context::InContext()) {
  cb->Call(v8::Context::GetCurrent()->Global(), argc, argv);
}

Is causing the following error (from GDB)

#
# Fatal error in ../deps/v8/src/api.h, line 297
# CHECK(allow_empty_handle || that != __null) failed

I thought that checking the current context prior to executing the callback would alleviate the problem but obviously I was wrong. Any assistance is appreciated.

It looks like you're trying to call the Global object, which makes no
sense JS since the Global object isn't accessible in that way. It
also wouldn't make sense from the v8 side unless you had set a getter
on it.

Can you explain that since every example and piece of documentation regarding Local<Function>, Persistent<Function> all indicate the inherited function Call() requires access to the current context as indicated by cb->Call(Context::GetCurrent()->Global(), argc, argv).
