Resulting in a massive rename across almost everywhere! Alongside the
namespace change, we now have the following names:
* JS::NonnullGCPtr -> GC::Ref
* JS::GCPtr -> GC::Ptr
* JS::HeapFunction -> GC::Function
* JS::CellImpl -> GC::Cell
* JS::Handle -> GC::Root
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 :^)
To allow implementing the DOM class hierarchy in JS bindings, this
patch adds an inherits() function that can be used to ask an Object
if it inherits from a specific C++ class (by name).
The necessary overrides are baked into each Object subclass by the
new JS_OBJECT macro, which works similarly to C_OBJECT in LibCore.
Thanks to @Dexesttp for suggesting this approach. :^)
Also let's settle on calling the operation of fetching the "this" value
from the Interpreter and converting it to a specific Object pointer
typed_this() since consistency is nice.
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.
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.
Objects can have both named and indexed properties. Previously we kept
all property names as strings. This patch separates named and indexed
properties and splits them between Object::m_storage and m_elements.
This allows us to do much faster array-style access using numeric
indices. It also makes the Array class much less special, since all
Objects now have number-indexed storage. :^)
Object now has virtual get_own_property() and put_own_property() member
functions that can be overridden to provide custom behavior.
We use these virtuals to move Array-specific access behavior to Array.
This function is ultimately supposed to be generic and allow any |this|
that has a length property, but for now it only works on our own Array
object type.
I'm not completely thrilled about Object::get() and Object::put() doing
special-case stuff for arrays, and we should probably come up with a
better abstraction for it.
But at least it works for now, which is really nice. :^)
