Problem:
- New `any_of` implementation takes the entire container so the user
does not need to pass explicit begin/end iterators. This is unused
except is in tests.
Solution:
- Make use of the new and more user-friendly version where possible.
The spec requires that invalid RegExp literals must cause a Syntax Error
before the JavaScript is executed. See:
https://tc39.es/ecma262/#sec-patterns-static-semantics-early-errors
This is explicitly tested in the RegExp/property-escapes test262 tests.
For example, see unsupported-property-Line_Break.js:
$DONOTEVALUATE();
/\p{Line_Break}/u;
That RegExp literal is invalid because Line_Break is not a supported
Unicode property. $DONOTEVALUATE() just throws an exception when it is
executed. The test expects that this file will fail to be parsed.
Note that RegExp patterns can still be parsed at execution time by way
of "new RegExp(...)".
If a function is strict (has 'use strict' directive) it cannot have
bindings, cannot have duplicated parameter names and cannot have some
reserved keywords and identifiers as parameter names.
The logic partly applies depending on whether we are already in strict
mode or the function contains 'use strict';
Instead of only parsing a primary expression, we should also allow
member expressions, call expressions, and tagged template literals (and
optional chains, which we don't have yet).
In the spec, all of this is covered by `LeftHandSideExpression`
(https://tc39.es/ecma262/#prod-LeftHandSideExpression).
This requires variables that should be exported to the script host
or to other scripts to be declared as var (such as in test-common.js),
since lexically-scoped variables won't be visible.
The parser doesn't always track lexical scopes correctly, so let's not
rely on that for direct argument loading.
This reverts the LoadArguments bytecode instruction as well. We can
bring these things back when the parser can reliably tell us that
a given Identifier is indeed a function argument.
To better follow the spec, we need to distinguish between the current
execution context's lexical environment and variable environment.
This patch moves us to having two record pointers, although both of
them point at the same environment records for now.
This patch makes the following name changes:
- ScopeObject => EnvironmentRecord
- LexicalEnvironment => DeclarativeEnvironmentRecord
- WithScope => ObjectEnvironmentRecord
From the specification:
It is a Syntax Error if StringValue of IdentifierName is the same
String value as the StringValue of any ReservedWord except for yield
or await.
It is a Syntax Error if this phrase is contained in strict mode code
and the StringValue of IdentifierName is: "implements", "interface",
"let", "package", "private", "protected", "public", "static", or
"yield".
This commit implements parsing for `yield *expr`, and the multiple
ways something can or can't be parsed like that.
Also makes yield-from a TODO in the bytecode generator.
Behold, the glory of javascript syntax:
```js
// 'yield' = expression in generators.
function* foo() {
yield
*bar; // <- Syntax error here, expression can't start with *
}
// 'yield' = identifier anywhere else.
function foo() {
yield
*bar; // Perfectly fine, this is just `yield * bar`
}
```
This patch adds an "argument index" field to Identifier AST nodes.
If the Identifier refers to a function parameter in the currently
open function scope, we stash the index of the parameter here.
This will allow us to implement much faster direct access to function
argument variables.
