We have multiple array types now, so ArrayInvalidLength has been
replaced with a generic InvalidLength.
Also fixes a small issue in the Array constructor, it should throw
RangeError for invalid lengths, not TypeError.
Roughly 7% of test-js runtime was spent creating FlyStrings from string
literals. This patch frontloads that work and caches all the commonly
used names in LibJS on a CommonPropertyNames struct that hangs off VM.
More work on decoupling the general runtime from Interpreter. The goal
is becoming clearer. Interpreter should be one possible way to execute
code inside a VM. In the future we might have other ways :^)
This patch moves the exception state, call stack and scope stack from
Interpreter to VM. I'm doing this to help myself discover what the
split between Interpreter and VM should be, by shuffling things around
and seeing what falls where.
With these changes, we no longer have a persistent lexical environment
for the current global object on the Interpreter's call stack. Instead,
we push/pop that environment on Interpreter::run() enter/exit.
Since it should only be used to find the global "this", and not for
variable storage (that goes directly into the global object instead!),
I had to insert some short-circuiting when walking the environment
parent chain during variable lookup.
Note that this is a "stepping stone" commit, not a final design.
The optional 2nd and 3rd arguments are not yet implemented.
This assumes that `this` is the Array constructor and doesn't yet
implement the more general behavior in the ES6 spec that allows
transferring this method to other constructors.
To make sure that everything is set up correctly in objects before we
start adding properties to them, we split cell allocation into 3 steps:
1. Allocate a cell of appropriate size from the Heap
2. Call the C++ constructor on the cell
3. Call initialize() on the constructed object
The job of initialize() is to define all the initial properties.
Doing it in a second pass guarantees that the Object has a valid Shape
and can find its own GlobalObject.
More work towards supporting multiple global objects. Native C++ code
now get a GlobalObject& and don't have to ask the Interpreter for it.
I've added macros for declaring and defining native callbacks since
this was pretty tedious and this makes it easier next time we want to
change any of these signatures.
This patch adds an IndexedProperties object for storing indexed
properties within an Object. This accomplishes two goals: indexed
properties now have an associated descriptor, and objects now gracefully
handle sparse properties.
The IndexedProperties class is a wrapper around two other classes, one
for simple indexed properties storage, and one for general indexed
property storage. Simple indexed property storage is the common-case,
and is simply a vector of properties which all have attributes of
default_attributes (writable, enumerable, and configurable).
General indexed property storage is for a collection of indexed
properties where EITHER one or more properties have attributes other
than default_attributes OR there is a property with a large index (in
particular, large is '200' or higher).
Indexed properties are now treated relatively the same as storage within
the various Object methods. Additionally, there is a custom iterator
class for IndexedProperties which makes iteration easy. The iterator
skips empty values by default, but can be configured otherwise.
Likewise, it evaluates getters by default, but can be set not to.
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.
As these parameter-less overloads don't change the value's type and
just assume Type::Number, naming them as_i32() and as_size_t() is more
appropriate.
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.
Let's start moving towards native JS objects taking their prototype as
a constructor argument.
This will eventually allow us to move prototypes off of Interpreter and
into GlobalObject.
The output of FunctionPrototype::to_string is now more in line
with the output in Firefox. The builtin constructors have been
extended to include their function name in the output.
