This is where the spec wants to have it. Requires a couple of hacks as
currently everything that needs a Realm actually has a GlobalObject, so
we need to go via the Interpreter.
Instead of hardcoding the environment's global object as the return
value of GlobalEnvironment::global_this_value(), it now stores an Object
reference which is passed to the constructor for this purpose.
From the spec (https://tc39.es/ecma262/#sec-global-environment-records):
[[GlobalThisValue]] | Object | The value returned by this in global
scope. Hosts may provide any ECMAScript Object value.
- Replace the misleading abuse of the m_transitions_enabled flag for the
fast path without lookup with a new m_initialized boolean that's set
either by Heap::allocate() after calling the Object's initialize(), or
by the GlobalObject in its special initialize_global_object(). This
makes it work regardless of the shape's uniqueness.
- When we're adding a new property past the initialization phase,
there's no need to do a second metadata lookup to retrieve the storage
value offset - it's known to always be the shape's property count
minus one. Also, instead of doing manual storage resizing and
assignment via indexing, just use Vector::append().
- When we didn't add a new property but are overwriting an existing one,
the property count and therefore storage value offset doesn't change,
so we don't have to retrieve it either.
As a result, Object::set_shape() is now solely responsible for updating
the m_shape pointer and is not resizing storage anymore, so I moved it
into the header.
Add a JS_ENUMERATE_INTL_OBJECTS macro and use it to generate:
- Forward declarations
- CommonPropertyNames class name members
- Constructor and prototype GlobalObject members, getters, visitors,
and initialize_constructor() calls
This is the start of implementing ECMA-402 in LibJS, better known as the
ECMAScript Internationalization API.
Much like Temporal this gets its own subdirectory (Runtime/Intl/) as
well as a new C++ namespace (JS::Intl) so we don't have to prefix all
the files and classes with "Intl".

This commit adds the PlainYearMonth object itself, its constructor and
prototype (currently empty), and the CreateTemporalYearMonth and
ISOYearMonthWithinLimits abstract operations.
This commit adds the ZonedDateTime object itself, its constructor and
prototype (currently empty), and the CreateTemporalZonedDateTime
abstract operation.
This implementation closely follows the StringIterator object in that
the abstract closure meant to be created in CreateRegExpStringIterator
is instead unrolled into RegExpStringIterator.prototype.next.
Just like the previous Temporal.{Instant,TimeZone} commits, this patch
adds the Calendar object itself, its constructor and prototype
(currently empty), and two required abstract operations.
Just like the initial Temporal.TimeZone commit, this patch adds the
Instant object itself, its constructor and prototype (currently empty),
and two required abstract operations.
Here we got our first Temporal object :^)
This patch adds the TimeZone object itself, its constructor and
prototype (currently empty), and a bunch of required abstract operations
Add a JS_ENUMERATE_TEMPORAL_OBJECTS macro and use it to generate:
- Forward declarations
- CommonPropertyNames class name members
- Constructor and prototype GlobalObject members, getters, visitors,
and initialize_constructor() calls
Currently empty, but we gotta start somewhere! This is the start of
implementing the Temporal proposal (currently stage 3).
I have decided to start a new subdirectory (Runtime/Temporal/) as well
as a new C++ namespace (JS::Temporal) for this so we don't have to
prefix all the files and classes with "Temporal" - there will be a lot.

This removes all usages of the non-standard define_property helper
method and replaces all it's usages with the specification required
alternative or with define_direct_property where appropriate.
This is a huge patch, I know. In hindsight this perhaps could've been
done slightly more incremental, but I started and then fixed everything
until it worked, and here we are. I tried splitting of some completely
unrelated changes into separate commits, however. Anyway.
This is a rewrite of most of Object, and by extension large parts of
Array, Proxy, Reflect, String, TypedArray, and some other things.
What we already had worked fine for about 90% of things, but getting the
last 10% right proved to be increasingly difficult with the current code
that sort of grew organically and is only very loosely based on the
spec - this became especially obvious when we started fixing a large
number of test262 failures.
Key changes include:
- 1:1 matching function names and parameters of all object-related
functions, to avoid ambiguity. Previously we had things like put(),
which the spec doesn't have - as a result it wasn't always clear which
need to be used.
- Better separation between object abstract operations and internal
methods - the former are always the same, the latter can be overridden
(and are therefore virtual). The internal methods (i.e. [[Foo]] in the
spec) are now prefixed with 'internal_' for clarity - again, it was
previously not always clear which AO a certain method represents,
get() could've been both Get and [[Get]] (I don't know which one it
was closer to right now).
Note that some of the old names have been kept until all code relying
on them is updated, but they are now simple wrappers around the
closest matching standard abstract operation.
- Simplifications of the storage layer: functions that write values to
storage are now prefixed with 'storage_' to make their purpose clear,
and as they are not part of the spec they should not contain any steps
specified by it. Much functionality is now covered by the layers above
it and was removed (e.g. handling of accessors, attribute checks).
- PropertyAttributes has been greatly simplified, and is being replaced
by PropertyDescriptor - a concept similar to the current
implementation, but more aligned with the actual spec. See the commit
message of the previous commit where it was introduced for details.
- As a bonus, and since I had to look at the spec a whole lot anyway, I
introduced more inline comments with the exact steps from the spec -
this makes it super easy to verify correctness.
- East-const all the things.
As a result of all of this, things are much more correct but a bit
slower now. Retaining speed wasn't a consideration at all, I have done
no profiling of the new code - there might be low hanging fruits, which
we can then harvest separately.
Special thanks to Idan for helping me with this by tracking down bugs,
updating everything outside of LibJS to work with these changes (LibWeb,
Spreadsheet, HackStudio), as well as providing countless patches to fix
regressions I introduced - there still are very few (we got it down to
5), but we also get many new passing test262 tests in return. :^)

These represent the outermost scope in the environment record
hierarchy. The spec says they should be a "composite" of two things:
- An ObjectEnvironmentRecord wrapping the global object
- A DeclarativeEnvironmentRecord for other declarations
It's not yet clear to me how this should work, so this patch only
implements the first part, an object record wrapping the global object.
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 adds FunctionEnvironmentRecord as a subclass of the existing
DeclarativeEnvironmentRecord. Things that are specific to function
environment records move into there, simplifying the base.
Most of the abstract operations related to function environment records
are rewritten to match the spec exactly. I also had to implement
GetThisEnvironment() and GetSuperConstructor() to keep tests working
after the changes, so that's nice as well. :^)
This patch makes the following renames:
- get_from_scope() => get_from_environment_record()
- put_to_scope() => put_into_environment_record()
- delete_from_scope() => delete_from_environment_record()
This patch makes the following name changes:
- ScopeObject => EnvironmentRecord
- LexicalEnvironment => DeclarativeEnvironmentRecord
- WithScope => ObjectEnvironmentRecord
As mentioned on Discord earlier, we'll add these to all new functions
going forward - this is the backfill. Reasons:
- It makes you look at the spec, implementing based on MDN or V8
behavior is a no-go
- It makes finding the various functions that are non-compliant easier,
in the future everything should either have such a comment or, if it's
not from the spec at all, a comment explaining why that is the case
- It makes it easier to check whether a certain abstract operation is
implemented in LibJS, not all of them use the same name as the spec.
E.g. RejectPromise() is Promise::reject()
- It makes it easier to reason about vm.arguments(), e.g. when the
function has a rest parameter
- It makes it easier to see whether a certain function is from a
proposal or Annex B
Also:
- Add arguments to all functions and abstract operations that already
had a comment
- Fix some outdated section numbers
- Replace some ecma-international.org URLs with tc39.es
While this implementation should be complete it is based on HashMap's
iterator, which currently follows bucket-order instead of the required
insertion order. This can be simply fixed by replacing the underlying
HashMap member in Map with an enhanced one that maintains a linked
list in insertion order.
