As I understand it, JS_ResolveStandardClass is used for lazy standard class
initialization.  What I'm trying to do is enumerate the methods of an object
of a standard class type.  The fastest way I know of to determine an
object's class type is comparing the memory locations of the class structs
(that's how SM does it anyway), and from there I can return a list of the
standard class's methods.

Is that correct?

Thanks,
