- Fix some places where escaped keywords are (not) allowed.
- Be more strict about parameters for functions with 'use strict'.
- Fix that expressions statements allowed functions and classes.
- Fix that class expressions were not allowed.
- Added a new next_token() method for checking the look ahead.
- Fix that continue labels could jump to non iterating targets.
- Fix that generator functions cannot be declared in if statements.
Added a test to ensure the behavior stays the same.
We now throw on a direct usage of an escaped keywords with a specific
error to make it more clear to the user.
For example, "property.br\u{64}wn" should resolve to "property.brown".
To support this behavior, this commit changes the Token class to hold
both the evaluated identifier name and a view into the original source
for the unevaluated name. There are some contexts in which identifiers
are not allowed to contain Unicode escape sequences; for example, export
statements of the form "export {} from foo.js" forbid escapes in the
identifier "from".
The test file is added to .prettierignore because prettier will replace
all escaped Unicode sequences with their unescaped value.
This is a small step in the right direction although the amount of
different checks is becoming unsustainable. In the future we probably
want to have the current_scope handle all declarations.
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.
