Prevent implicit return of window.URL function #576

Closed outdooricon closed 8 years ago

outdooricon commented 8 years ago

This prevents the implicit return of window.URL's constructor instead of a simple boolean value for usermedia-core's test. This is important because the polyfiller looks to see if test is a function, and if so calls it. The recently released Chrome 53 doesn't allow direct calls to the URL constructor anymore and will throw an error if called directly. So now a lot of people are seeing webshim break and the further load of their JS stack halt.

It looks like the call to URL's constructor has been occurring for a little while now but was hidden because the existence of window.URL is still being verified, even though it was also being erroneously called.
