dojo/_base¶
Contents
dojo/_base contains a number of modules that provide basic functionality, such as array operations and AJAX functionality. Typically, if a function or class exists within the dojo namespace directly (e.g. dojo.forEach()) then it is defined in dojo/_base.
However, the modules in dojo/_base are being phased out in favor of top level modules in the dojo/ directory. The dojo/_base files will be maintained until the 2.0 release.
