Making a separate PR for the changes in the prior PR by ArthurG0. Unfortunately the branch being pulled from is not available for me to update/rebase and ArthurG0 left our company so it is not expected of them to follow up on the necessary changes for the stale PR to be accepted. I added them to the AUTHORS file in this branch to keep record of their contributions.
To restate the original PR, the original issue was that the WebIDL Binder was incorrectly handling the const char* return type as it treated it as an
int
rather than achar*
. The fix allows the basic type to be cast into the correct type in the generated glue code.
