This adds regex parsing/lexing, as well as a relatively empty
RegExpObject. The purpose of this patch is to allow the engine to not
get hung up on parsing regexes. This will aid in finding new syntax
errors (say, from google or twitter) without having to replace all of
their regexes first!
Includes all traps except the following: [[Call]], [[Construct]],
[[OwnPropertyKeys]].
An important implication of this commit is that any call to any virtual
Object method has the potential to throw an exception. These methods
were not checked in this commit -- a future commit will have to protect
these various method calls throughout the codebase.
Previously, the Object class had many different types of functions for
each action. For example: get_by_index, get(PropertyName),
get(FlyString). This is a bit verbose, so these methods have been
shortened to simply use the PropertyName structure. The methods then
internally call _by_index if necessary. Note that the _by_index
have been made private to enforce this change.
Secondly, a clear distinction has been made between "putting" and
"defining" an object property. "Putting" should mean modifying a
(potentially) already existing property. This is akin to doing "a.b =
'foo'".
This implies two things about put operations:
- They will search the prototype chain for setters and call them, if
necessary.
- If no property exists with a particular key, the put operation
should create a new property with the default attributes
(configurable, writable, and enumerable).
In contrast, "defining" a property should completely overwrite any
existing value without calling setters (if that property is
configurable, of course).
Thus, all of the many JS objects have had any "put" calls changed to
"define_property" calls. Additionally, "put_native_function" and
"put_native_property" have had their "put" replaced with "define".
Finally, "put_own_property" has been made private, as all necessary
functionality should be exposed with the put and define_property
methods.
This saves us both a bit of time and accuracy, as Serenity's strtod()
still is a little bit off sometimes - and stringifying the result and
parsing it again just increases that offset.
This patch is unfortunately rather large and might make some things feel
bloated, but it is necessary to fix a few flaws in LibJS, primarily
blindly coercing values to numbers without exception checks - i.e.
interpreter.argument(0).to_i32(); // can fail!!!
Some examples where the interpreter would actually crash:
var o = { toString: () => { throw Error() } };
+o;
o - 1;
"foo".charAt(o);
"bar".repeat(o);
To fix this, we now have the following...
to_double(Interpreter&)
to_i32()
to_i32(Interpreter&)
to_size_t()
to_size_t(Interpreter&)
...and a whole lot of exception checking.
There's intentionally no to_double(), use as_double() directly instead.
This way we still can use these convenient utility functions but don't
need to check for exceptions if we are sure the value already is a
number.
Fixes#2267.
This commit adds the following classes: SymbolObject, SymbolConstructor,
SymbolPrototype, and Symbol. This commit does not introduce any
new functionality to the Object class, so they cannot be used as
property keys in objects.
Added the ability to include a u8 attributes parameter with all of the
various put methods in the Object class. They can be omitted, in which
case it defaults to "Writable | Enumerable | Configurable", just like
before this commit.
All of the attribute values for each property were gathered from
SpiderMonkey in the Firefox console. Some properties (e.g. all of the
canvas element properties) have undefined property descriptors... not
quite sure what that means. Those were left as the default specified
above.
Everyone who constructs an Object must now pass a prototype object when
applicable. There's still a fair amount of code that passes something
fetched from the Interpreter, but this brings us closer to being able
to detach prototypes from Interpreter eventually.
This patch adds instance, constructor and prototype classes for:
- EvalError
- InternalError
- RangeError
- ReferenceError
- SyntaxError
- TypeError
- URIError
Enumerator macros are used to reduce the amount of typing. :^)
We already have "global" as a way to access the global object in js(1)
(both REPL and script mode). This replaces it with "globalThis", which
is available in all environments, not just js.
There is no such thing as a "undefined literal" in JS - undefined is
just a property on the global object with a value of undefined.
This is pretty similar to NaN.
var undefined = "foo"; is a perfectly fine AssignmentExpression :^)
This adds:
- A global Date object (with `length` property and `now` function)
- The Date constructor (no arguments yet)
- The Date prototype (with `get*` functions)
Instead of implementing every native function as a lambda function,
use static member functions instead.
This makes it easier to navigate the code + backtraces look nicer. :^)
Native functions now only get the Interpreter& as an argument. They can
then extract |this| along with any indexed arguments it wants from it.
This forces functions that want |this| to actually deal with calling
interpreter.this_value().to_object(), and dealing with the possibility
of a non-object |this|.
This is still not great but let's keep massaging it forward.
