Description Jamie Brandon 2013-06-23 18:21:31 UTC 
>>> Soup = gi.imports.Soup
>>> s1 = new Soup.Server({"port": 10011})
[object instance proxy GIName:Soup.Server jsobj@0x7f2869850fa0 native@0x461ff10]
>>> s2 = new Soup.Server({"port": 10011})
[object prototype of GIName:Soup.Server jsobj@0x7f2869bc7910]
        ^^^^^^^^^

I would expect it to throw an exception.
Comment 1 Dan Winship 2013-06-28 12:37:55 UTC 
yeah, SoupServer is a broken old API that sometimes returns NULL from its constructor(), which you're not supposed to do, and apparently gjs doesn't deal with this. Will be fixed eventually...
