This seems like an odd choice, since the context will typically be easy to find (there's usually only one) but walking the filter graph is very hard and currently requires building a wrapping implementation. Suggestion: Drop context, numberOfInputs and numberOfOutputs. Knowing the number of inputs/outputs is by itself not very useful. Possibly, we could expose an Array-like object for access to the inputs and outputs, but only if the use cases are strong. 68836 1 olivier.thereaux 2012-06-07 15:58:13 +0000 Comment from Chris Rogers, 18 May 2012 My belief is that it's not *that hard* to keep track of these relationships with quite simple wrapper code. After all, most people don't really care about "walking the graph", and those who know what this means can certainly track this state easily themselves. We can change it if most people think this is the way to go, but I don't recommend it since I think it adds more complexity than is necessary. 68976 2 mage 2012-06-12 13:08:26 +0000 Additional comment from Philip Jägenstedt, http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-audio/2012AprJun/0488.html " We would be fine with not introducing arrays of connected nodes, at least until Web authors complain about having to wrap AudioNodes all the time. However, our suggestion to drop context, numberOfInputs and numberOfOutput stands, but overlaps with ISSUE-103. (Of course, if there are use cases, we'd be interested to learn about them.)
