Audio-ISSUE-57 (JavaScriptAudioNodeName): JavaScriptAudioNode name [Web Audio API]

http://www.w3.org/2011/audio/track/issues/57

Raised by: Philip Jägenstedt
On product: Web Audio API

The name is extremely odd for a Web specification, hopefully unprecedented.

>From a spec-lawyering point of view, WebIDL is supposed to be language-agnostic, so it's weird to put the name of a language into the name of an interface. What would it be called in Dart?

Suggestions: CustomAudioNode or CallbackAudioNode.

I also suggested that createJavaScriptNode be renamed to createNode. [1]

The name has been changed to ScriptProcessorNode

The suggested create method name is createScriptProcessor()
