Revision 8 of this benchmark created on

Description

Testing out the performance of Dojo's HTML addClass/removeClass/toggleClass methods against HTML5's native support for ClassList.

Preparation HTML

<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/dojo/1.8.1/dojo/dojo.js">
</script>
<div id="empty_class">
</div>
<div class="a_class" id="single_class">
</div>
<div class="a_class b_class c_class" id="many_classes">
</div>
<script>
  require(['dojo/dom-class', 'dojo/dom', "dojo/has"], function(dClass, dDom, has) {
    domClass = dClass;
    dom = dDom;

    // mostly blind code, sorry

    // this shall be added to has.js and/or dojo or both
    has.add("dom-class-list", function(global, document, anElement) {
      return "classList" in anElement;
    });


    // new method here, but shall be included in dojo impl or used as extension
    dClass.contains1 = has("dom-class-list") ?
    function(node, classStr) {
      return dDom.byId(node).classList.contains(classStr);
      //TODO: check for border conditions in orig. dojo impl.
    } : dClass.contains;
    // just debug
    console.debug('has("dom-class-list"):', has("dom-class-list"));
    console.debug('dClass.contains1', dClass.contains1);
  });
