Subject: GetScript Error suggestion for Slouken
   So I've pretty much mastered frame script element hooking, however there's no good way to check if the script element exists. Currently if you do a GetScript on a frame that doesn't have that particular script element it errors.
Ex: Frame doesn't have a "OnClick" script.

Why doesn't it just return nil? that would be easy to check in code and make my life easier. Either that or have a HasScript function that returns 1/0 or true/false.

   By the way, SetScript() will give you the same error, if you try to set a script which doesn't exist for that frame.

Why would you be getting scripts from arbitrary frames without knowing what they are and what they do, anyway?

Q u o t e:
A Frame:GetType() method would be extremly useful in AceGUI.


Remind me in the 1.9 Upcoming Changes thread when it gets started. It's something I'd definitely like to add.

Q u o t e:
Well, my original reasoning for wanting to be able to tell if a frame could use that particular script elemt is for abstraction.



Okay, I added Frame:HasScript("scripttype");


Q u o t e:

And maybe I'm getting carried away but what about Frame:SetFrameType("frameType") is that even feasable


You can't change a frame type.

   Feel free, I'll ignore any that are of dubious worth or time consuming to implement.

   *nod* Good point, although it's probably too late to change at this point.

   Heheh, the confusing name. The functionality is what you asked for.
