IE - Events not working in IE - Undefined Element.matches

[Joao Oliveira]

Found a bug while using event in IE due to the fact that Element.matches.msMatchesSelector is not being used.

Example:

xtag.register('dummy-component', { content: '<div><input type="text"/></div>', lifecycle: { // Fires when an instance of the element is created created: function () { xtag.addEvent(this, 'input:delegate(input)', function() { console.log("Input value updated"); }); } } });

Every time I change the input value the event will be triggered. It works as expected on all browsers but fails for Internet Explorer:

After a quick look it seems that the prefix is wrongly calculated when using IE:

prefix = (function () { var keys = Object.keys(window).join(); var pre = ((keys.match(/,(ms)/) || keys.match(/,(moz)/) || keys.match(/,(O)/)) || [null, 'webkit'])[1].toLowerCase(); return { dom: pre == 'ms' ? 'MS' : pre, lowercase: pre, css: '-' + pre + '-', js: pre == 'ms' ? pre : pre.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + pre.substring(1) }; })(),

The value of pre should be ms but it's returned as "o".
This is the value of my keys variable:

__BROWSERTOOLS_CONSOLE_SAFEFUNC,__BROWSERTOOLS_CONSOLE_BREAKMODE_FUNC,__BROWSERTOOLS_CONSOLE,__BROWSERTOOLS_EMULATIONTOOLS_ADDED,console,__BROWSERTOOLS_DOMEXPLORER_ADDED,__BROWSERTOOLS_MEMORYANALYZER_ADDED,__BROWSERTOOLS_DEBUGGER,core,__core-js_shared__,Symbol,Promise,WeakSet,Reflect,System,asap,Observable,WebComponents,JsMutationObserver,HTMLTemplateElement,HTMLImports,CustomElements,unwrap,wrap,cd,dir,select,$,$$,$_,keys

As you can see there's no match for /,(ms)/ however there's a match for /,(O)/ because of the Observable key.

Is there a better way to detect which prefix to use? The window object keys doesn't seem to be the right place for it.

Just realize the problem is the same as the already existing issue #164 and that there is already a pull request with the fix.

Any idea about when the fix is going to be deployed?

Thanks
