mozilla/js/rhino/org is now distributed between
mozilla/js/rhino/src and mozilla/js/rhino/toolsrc.
The build.xml has been split in three.
Docs now live in the project directory.
These changes mean that the cvs directories mirror the distribution and thus a distribution
will build the same way as a cvs build.
15.3.4.2 Function.prototype.toString ( )
An implementation-dependent representation of the function is returned. This representation has the syntax of a
FunctionDeclaration. Note in particular that the use and placement of white space, line terminators, and semicolons
within the representation string is implementation-dependent.
add line attribute to jsdIStackFrame
remove isFuction from jsdIValue
add TYPE_UNKNOWN to jsType "enumeration" so we don't fail hard if we can't figure out the type.
add hook type "enumeration" to jsdIExecutionHook
add line attribute to jsdStackFrame
add pcToLine and lineToPc methods to jsdStackFrame
remove isFunction attribute from jsdValue (already covered by jsType attribute)
add propertyCount attribute to jsdValue so you can get the property cound without forcing a bunch of property wrappers to be created (as in GetProperties())
basic methods for jsdIObject and jsdIProperty
tweak string params
most methods for jsdIScript jsdIStackFrame, jsdIThreadState, and jsdIValue
add hack methods enterNestedEventLoop and exitNestedEventLoop. These should be moved to another interface before long.
I attach optimization patch for NativeDate that makes all js... methods
private, removes passing of unnecessary parameters and replaces
checkInstance by realThis call with false as the third parameter.

Hi, Norris!
Here is another small optimization for NativeDate in DayFromMonth method
where it replaces arrays by few ifs.

Rhino: patch for IdScriptable.java and question about useDynamicScope

Hi, Norris!
Here is a patch to IdScriptable.java that fixes sealed semantic and
makes Something.prototype.constructor to behave just as having DONTENUM
attribute, not DONTENUM|READONLY|PERMANENT. It also renames
seal_function to sealFunctions.
I also have a following question. I added nextInstanceCheck to
IdScriptable.java and its usage in realThis in NativeDate to emulate
code from FunctionObject where it looks up prototype in search for
NativeSomething instance if useDynamicScope is true. But could you
describe why it is necessary? I can understand why doing something like
var proto = new Date();
function Test() { }
Test.prototype = proto;
var test = new Test();
print(test.getDay()); // same as proto.getDay()
would be useful in ceratain situations, but what it has to do with
shared scopes?
Regards, Igor
arguments objects are prototyped by Object.prototype, per ECMA. We still
want a custom class, in order to lazily resolve active-JSStackFrame-based
properties.
- Use a reserved slot to hold a bitmap of deleted arguments elements, so we
don't re-resolve them after they've been deleted (which would make them seem
to be permanent, contrary to ECMA). This work involved sprucing up several
fundamental types (jsbitmap) and macros (jsbitmap helper macros in jsbit.h,
JS_HOWMANY in jstypes.h, JSVAL_INT_BITS in jsapi.h).
to the JS API, for per class extra slots beyond JSSLOT_PRIVATE (or starting
there for a class that lacks JSCLASS_HAS_PRIVATE). To avoid penalizing all
instances, these slots are allocated only upon first property-owned slot
allocation, or upon first JS_SetReservedSlot.
This entailed adding getRequiredSlot and setRequiredSlot hooks to the
JSObjectOps struct, and making obj->slots self-describing, a la BSTR. It
also afforded me a chance to clean up obj->slots locking so that non-native
JSObjectOps didn't risk unlocked accesses! Now there are thread-safe hooks
for all uses of obj.
First consumer is the new, DOM-glue-unifying XPConnect, which needs two
slots per wrapped function. Hence the change to js_FunctionClass.flags'
initializer.
- Commented the heck out of JSClass and JSObjectOps function typedefs in
jspubtd.h. I hope embedders see these comments!
- Fix JS_XDRValue's default case to handle int exclusively, there is no other
possible type (and therefore no JSMSG_BAD_JVAL_TYPE error).
- Clean up tabs in select old, tab-ridden files and sections.
- s/\<fh\>/file/g for stdio FILE * canonical variable names.

Hi Norris,
Attached is a minor fix to the JSDebugger GUI that causes the tool-bar buttons to all have the same width.
I checked out and modified a file from CVS today. See the screenshot below.

in both directions.
72552: Remedy overzealous CHECK_REQUEST placement in jsapi.c, to produce a
minimal-but-complete set of engine entry points that require a Request
for safe execution.
r=brendan, sr=jband, assist=scc,pinkerton
where any occurrence of arguments.length or arguments[0], e.g., would be
"optimized" to use those bytecodes. This is just wrong if the occurrence
is an operand of delete, ++, --, or the left-hand-side of an assignment
operator!
- [jsfun.c, jsinterp.c] args_getProperty etc. must use JS_GetInstancePrivate,
not JS_GetPrivate, as the arguments object is exposed, and can be made a
prototype of other objects that do not have private data, or private data
that's a JSStackFrame*. Same goes for fun_getProperty, js_GetArgument, etc.
- [jsfun.c, jsobj.c, jsstr.c] No need to specialize fun_delProperty and
str_delProperty to help convince users and ECMA conformance tests that
fun.length and str.length are direct properties of instances, instead of
being delegated to Function.prototype.length and String.prototype.length.
This special case is done universally in js_DeleteProperty for all SHARED
and PERMANENT proto-properties.
- [jshash.c] Sneaking this followup-fix for bug 69271 in: use JS_HASH_BITS
rather than hardcoded 32.
- [jsobj.c, jsscope.[ch]] Fix misnamed js_HashValue (it takes a jsid, so it
is now js_HashId).
- [jsscript.c] script_compile needs to call JS_InstanceOf, to ensure that obj
is a Script object.
- Don't ape java.lang.String's bogo-sampling hash function for "long" (>=16
char) strings.
- Theory and practice comment in jsdhash.h helps analyze when to use double
hashing (most of the time) vs. when to use chaining.
- Subroutine ChangeTable from JS_DHashTableOperate so it can be called from
JS_DHashTableEnumerate, if the latter finds that enough entries have been
removed to be worth a shrink or compress cycle.
- teach nsGenericFactory about nsIClassInfo, and nsIClassInfo.idl to the
builds
- add a heaping serving of macro love for classes that want to support it
- convert many modules to use nsGenericModule the new way
- handful of warning and modeline fixes
- nsSample and some XPConnect test classes now have nsIClassInfo support for
testing
r=pchwartau, sr=brendan
Just add an _IS_LITTLE_ENDIAN for XP_OS2 for now. Eventually, we need to figure
out how to get jstypes.h included in here, since it already has a LITTLE_ENDIAN define.
r=pchwartau, sr=brendan
Rework makefile.win and js.mak for the eventual ability to include jstypes.h in fdlibm.h
Not turned on yet because I can't get it working right on Linux
- Fix bug where script jssrcnote vector terminator was not XDRed.
- Ensure that memory is cleared by serializing zero padding bytes as needed
under JS_XDRBytes and JS_XDRString.
- Fix JS_XDRValue to handle undefined and null JS types properly (bug 31003).
Also make it cast from jsint to uint32 and back carefully, so as to work
with negative numbers even on targets where jsval is a signed 64 bit type.
- Add JS_XDRScript public API.
- Optimize the per-JSXDRState class registry so it uses a JSDHashTable upon
searching for a class-id by name in an overpopulated (for linear search)
registry table.
- Clean up API nits such as JS_XDRNewBase => JS_XDRInitBase, with parameter
list rotation to put cx last (JS_XDRInitBase is an infallible init helper,
not an error-reporting, cx-comes-first, API entry point).
- Fix some XXX comments, unneeded masks, other nits.
- Make sure all JS XDR API functions start with JS_XDR.
* fixed ImporterTopLevel constructor - it now calls
cx.initStandardObjects before defining any functions. The old
constructor is still around for backwards compatibility.
- Fix scope chain for nested functions at top-level (JSOP_DEFFUN), in a part of another statement (JSOP_CLOSURE), and unnamed in an expression (JSOP_ANONFUNOBJ) to match ECMA-262 13.2. My bad: fp->varobj was used up till now, instead of fp->scopeChain; we still *bind* the name of a statement-level (top or not) nested function in fp->varobj. This fixes bug 69559. (r=rogerl, sr=jband)
- Add an Intern command to the shell, for GC vs. intern'ed atom testing.
Rhino Context.setTargetClassFileName() null pointer exception

I'm setting the file name to compile to a file. However, on subsequent
compiles, I don't want to compile to a file, so I tried
setTargetClassFileName(null). This causes a NullPpinterException in
OptClassNameHelper.setTargetClassFileName(OptClassNameHelper.java:76)
It seems that Context.setTargetClassFileName() should check for null.
Thanks

Rhino Exception Handling: Inconsistency btw Old/New Versions of 1.5

I've been using Rhino for about a year with almost no problems. However,
I downloaded the latest Rhino tip (rhino15R2pre) and discovered a
significant difference in exception handling.
I rely heavily on JavaScript code like the following:
try {
var em = new ExceptionMaker();
em.npe(); // method throws a java.lang.NullPointerException
//em.ae(); // method throws a Packages.AutomationException
}
catch (e if (e instanceof java.lang.NullPointerException)) {
java.lang.System.out.println("Caught a NullPointerException");
e.printStackTrace();
}
catch (e if (e instanceof Packages.AutomationException)) {
java.lang.System.out.println("Caught an AutomationException");
}
catch (e) {
java.lang.System.out.println("Caught an unexpected exception: "+e);
}
finally {
java.lang.System.out.println("Finally!");
}
Previous Rhino versions worked as expected. The exception thrown from
within the host object would be caught and the appropriate actions could
be taken.
With the most recent tip, the thrown exceptions simply are not caught
within the JavaScript. They propagate back to the Java function invoking
the (in my case) Context.evaluateReader() method.
Running the above JS fragement with the older tip displayed the
following stack trace (when the NullPointerException was caught):
Rhino Version: JavaScript-Java 1.5 release 1 2000 03 15
Caught a NullPointerException

Finally!

Curiously, both Rhino versions seem to be returning the same string from
Context.getImplementionVerison();
Anyway, the results from the two runs are clearly different: In the
first case, the exception is thown, the correct catch block is invoked
(hence the stace trace), and the finally block is invoked. In the second
case, the exception is thrown, the finally block is invoked, and the
exception is handled by the calling Java method rather than being
handled by the JavaScript code.
After some research, it appears this change was introducted by a
modification to FunctionObject.call() (See
http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=64788) which used to have:
try {
Object result = (method != null)
? method.invoke(thisObj, invokeArgs)
: ctor.newInstance(invokeArgs);
return hasVoidReturn ? Undefined.instance : result;
}
but now has:
Object result = method == null ?
ctor.newInstance(invokeArgs)
: doInvoke(thisObj,
invokeArgs);
If I comment out the new code and replace it with the old, the expected
exception handling returns. Is this just an oversight or the new
expected behavior? Are there any negative side effects (other then the
speed decrease in method invocation) if I use the latest tip but use the
old method invocation procedure in FunctionObject.call() rather than the
new?
- Remove bogus JS_ASSERT(!outermost) from the code that deals with a "#n="
type string being returned from js_EnterSharpObject, where the hash entry
is not yet sharp (because we haven't seen the object twice during depth
first search). This case trivially arises for the outermost object in,
e.g., 'o={}; o.foo=o; uneval(o)'.
- Avoid parenthesizing #n={...} object initializers for uneval, as they are
not ambiguous (whereas {foo:1}, e.g., is ambiguous because it could be a
block statement containing a labeled expression statement, or it could be
an object initializer).
- Death to tabs!

I have found out some more. Looking really quickly over the JVM specs, I
found that
indeed the astore-command requires that the variables index be below 128.
However,
the book also said that if more index space is needed, a "wide" command can
be used to
be able to address up to 65xxx variables.
Question: is there a possibility to integrate this "wide"-command into the
class compiler?
Some option, that can be set? Or am I on the wrong tracks?
Please help, since I want to avoid spreading the script over many classes to
avoid the
size limitation. Cheers, Sylvia
