<DESCRIPTION>
<C>JSVAL_TO_GCTHING</C> clears the type tag for a specified JS value, <C>v</C>, so the JS value can be garbage collected if it is a string, object, or number. It does so by clearing the type tag, which results in clean pointer to the storage area for <C>v</C>. The resulting value is cast to a void pointer.<P/>

JSVAL_TO_OBJECT(v)
</SYNTAX>
<DESCRIPTION>
<C>JSVAL_TO_OBJECT</C> clears a specified JS value, <C>v</C>, to a JS object. It does so by casting the value's type tag and casting the result to an object pointer.<P/>
Casting <C>v</C> to an object pointer manipulates its underlying type tag. <C>v</C> must be an object jsval. Casting does not convert the value stored in <C>v</C> to a different data type. To perform actual data type conversion, use the <C>JS_ValueToObject</C> function.<P/>
</DESCRIPTION>
<NOTE>
This macro assumes that the JS type tag for <C>v</C> is already <C>JSVAL_OBJECT</C>.
Because JS values are represented as bit-shifted C integers, comparisons of
<C>JSVAL_TO_OBJECT(v)</C> to <C>v</C> itself are not equal unless you ignore the C pointer
type mismatch and <C>v</C> is an object reference.

<DESCRIPTION>
<C>JSPROP_ENUMERATE</C> is a flag value that indicates a property belonging to a JS object is visible to <B>for</B> and <B>in</B> loops. <C>JSPROP_ENUMERATE</C> is used to set or clear the <C>flags</C> field in a <C>JSPropertySpec</C> structure so that a property can be made visible or invisible to loops.<P/>
</DESCRIPTION>
<NOTE>
Property flags cannot be changed at run time. Instead, you either pass a set of
flags as an argument to <C>JS_DefineProperty</C> to create a single property with
fixed flag values, or you set property flags in a <C>JSPropertySpec</C> struct which is
then passed to the <C>JS_DefineProperties</C> function to create multiple
properties on a single object.

<EXAMPLEdesc='The following code fragment illustrates how JSPROP_ENUMERATE can be set for a property structure before you call JS_DefineProperties:'>
JSPROP_READONLY is a flag value that indicates that the value for a property belonging to a JS object cannot be set at run time. For JavaScript 1.2 and lower, it is an error to attempt to assign a value to a property marked with the <C>JSPROP_READONLY</C> flag. In JavaScript 1.3 and ECMA-Script, attempts to set a value on a read-only property are ignored. You can, however, always check the <C>flags</C> fields to determine if a property is read only.<P/>

<DESCRIPTION>
<C>JS_ConvertArguments</C> provides a convenient way to translate a series of JS values into their corresponding JS types with a single function call. It saves you from having to write separate tests and elaborate <B><C>if...else</C></B> statements in your function code to retrieve and translate multiple JS values for use with your own functions.<P/>
<C>cx</C> is the context for the call. <C>argc</C> indicates the number of JS values you are passing in for conversion. <C>argv</C> is a pointer to the array of JS values to convert.<P/>
<C>format</C> is a sequential character array, where each element of the array indicates the JS type into which to convert the next available JS value. <C>format</C> can contain one or more instances of the following characters, as appropriate:
<![CDATA[
<TABLEBORDER="0">
<TR><TDVALIGN='baseline'ALIGN='left'>
<B>Character
</B></TD><TDVALIGN='baseline'ALIGN='left'>
<B>Corresponding JS type to which to convert the value
None. If a slash (/) is present in <CODE>format</CODE>, it tells the conversion routine to turn off checking that the argument vector was passed to JS_ConvertArguments from a valid native JS function.</P>
</TD></TR></TABLE >
]]>
<P/>
For example, if <C>format</C> is "<C>bIfb</C>", then <C>JS_ConvertArguments</C> converts the first JS value in argv into a <C>JSBool</C>, the second value into a <C>jsdouble</C>, the third value into a <C>JSObject</C>, and the last value into a <C>JSBool</C>.<P/>
To skip a given argument, pass an asterisk in the corresponding position in <C>format</C>.<P/>
<C>JS_ConvertArguments</C> expects to be passed an argument vector that belongs to a native JS function, such that every argument passed is already a JS value. By default, when you first call <C>JS_ConvertArguments</C>, it automatically provides built-in error checking to guarantee that the proper number of arguments has been passed. If an improper number of arguments is passed in, <C>JS_ConvertArguments</C> reports an error and terminates. You can turn off this error-checking at any time by passing a slash (/) as a character any place in format where you no longer desire the argument number check to be made.<P/>
When you call <C>JS_ConvertArguments</C>, the arguments you pass in after <C>format</C> must be a series of pointers to storage. You must allocate one storage pointer for each converted value you expect.<P/>
If <C>JS_ConvertArgument</C> successfully converts all arguments, it returns <C>JS_TRUE</C>. Otherwise it returns <C>JS_FALSE</C>.<P/>

<DESCRIPTION>
<C>JS_ConvertValue</C> converts a specified JS value, v, to a specified JS type, <C>type</C>. The converted value is stored in the <C>jsval</C> pointed to by <C>vp</C>. Typically users of this function set <C>vp</C> to point to <C>v</C>, so that if conversion is successful, <C>v</C> now contains the converted value.<P/>
<C>JS_ConvertValue</C> calls other, type-specific conversion routines based on what you specify in type. These include <C>JS_ValueToFunction</C>, <C>JS_ValueToString</C>, <C>JS_ValueToNumber</C>, and <C>JS_ValueToBoolean</C>.<P/>
Converting any JS value to <C>JSTYPE_VOID</C> always succeeds.<P/>

Converting to <C>JSTYPE_FUNCTION</C> is successful if the JS value to convert is an object for which a function class has been defined, or if the JS value is already a function.<P/>
Converting any JS value to <C>JSTYPE_STRING</C> always succeeds.<P/>
Converting a JS value to <C>JSTYPE_NUMBER</C> succeeds if the JS value to convert is a <C>JSVAL_INT</C>, <C>JSVAL_DOUBLE</C>, or <C>JSVAL_BOOLEAN</C>. If the JS value is a <C>JSVAL_STRING</C> that contains numeric values and signs only, conversion also succeeds. If the JS value is a <C>JSVAL_OBJECT</C>, conversion is successful if the object supports its own conversion function.<P/>
Converting any JS value to <C>JSTYPE_BOOLEAN</C> always succeeds, except when the JS value is a <C>JSVAL_OBJECT</C> that does not support its own conversion routine.<P/>
If the conversion is successful, <C>JS_ConvertValue</C> returns <C>JS_TRUE</C>, and vp points to the converted value. Otherwise, it returns <C>JS_FALSE</C>, and <C>vp</C> is either undefined, or points to the current value of v, depending on how you implement your code.<P/>

<DESCRIPTION>
<C>JS_ContextIterator</C> enables you to cycle through all the executable script contexts associated with a specified JS run-time environment, <C>rt</C>. Each call to <C>JS_ContextIterator</C> cycles from the current context to the previous context.<P/>
The first time you call <C>JS_ContextIterator</C>, <C>iterp</C> can point to a null-valued context pointer, or it can point to a known context pointer associated with the specified runtime. If you point <C>iterp</C> at a null-valued context pointer, the function automatically determines the first executable script context for the runtime, and makes it the "current" context for the function. If you set <C>iterp</C> to a valid context pointer, that context becomes the "current" context. If the "current" context matches the starting address of the runtime environment's context list, then there are no context established, and <C>JS_ContextIterator</C> returns <C>NULL</C>. Otherwise <C>JS_ContextIterator</C> points <C>iterp</C> to the previous context pointer in the context chain, and returns that pointer.<P/>
In effect, by making repeated calls to <C>JS_ContextIterator</C> you can cycle through all executable script contexts for a given runtime, and perform common operations on each them.<P/>

<DESCRIPTION>
<C>JS_realloc</C> reallocates a region of memory, while preserving its contents. Typically you call <C>JS_realloc</C> because you need to allocate more memory than orginally allocated with a call to <C>JS_malloc</C>, but it can also be called to decrease the amount of allocated memory, and even to deallocate the memory region entirely. <C>p</C> is a pointer to the previously allocated memory region, and <C>nbytes</C> is the size, in bytes, of the region to allocate.<P/>

<DESCRIPTION>
<C>JS_RemoveRoot</C> removes an entry for a a specified item, <C>rp</C>, from the garbage collection hash table. When an item is removed from the hash table, it can be garbage collected. <C>rp</C> is a pointer to a JS double, string, or object. An entry for the item is removed in the garbage collection hash table for the specified executable script context, <C>cx</C>.<P/>
When your multi-threaded application wants to execute JS API calls on a thread, it should use <C>JS_BeginRequest</C> and <C>JS_EndRequest</C> to bracket maximal non-blocking hunks of native code that call the JS API. This "request model" serves two purposes: to interlock with the global mark/sweep garbage collector, and to optimize object locking to be lock-free in most cases. In order to achieve these purposes, <C>JS_BeginRequest</C> first checks that garbage collection is not in process. If it is, <C>JS_BeginRequest</C> waits until garbage collection is complete before locking the JS engine runtime and incrementing its request counter. After incrementing the counter, <C>JS_BeginRequest</C> unlocks the runtime if it previously locked it.<P/>
It is therefore imperative that native code executing within an active request on <C>cx</C> not block, or simply take too long. Any blocking native call, or lengthy computation that can race safely with the garbage collector, must be bracketed within the native method or function with <C>JS_SuspendRequest</C> and <C>JS_ResumeRequest</C>.<P/>
It is safe to nest calls to <C>JS_BeginRequest</C> so long as each call is balanced by a matching <C>JS_EndRequest</C>.<P/>
<C>JS_BeginRequest</C> is available only if you compile the JS engine with <C>JS_THREADSAFE</C> defined. In a default engine compilation, <C>JS_THREADSAFE</C> is undefined.<P/>
When your multi-threaded application has called <C>JS_BeginRequest</C> and no longer needs to call the JS API in a non-blocking burst of activity, <C>JS_EndRequest</C> safely decrements the request counter for the JS engine runtime associated with a given context, <C>cx</C>. If decrementing the counter reduces it to zero, <C>JS_EndRequest</C> locks the runtime and notifies the garbage collector so that values no longer in use can be cleaned up.<P/>
The application may nest calls to <C>JS_BeginRequest</C> provided it balances each such call with a matching <C>JS_EndRequest</C>.<P/>
<C>JS_EndRequest</C> is available only if you compile the JS engine with <C>JS_THREADSAFE</C> defined. In a default engine compilation, <C>JS_THREADSAFE</C> is undefined.<P/>
When your multi-threaded application is in a request but needs to block or perform lengthy computation that can race safely with the garbage collector, it should call <C>JS_SuspendRequest</C> before the blocking or lengthy call, and <C>JS_ResumeRequest</C> after. <C>JS_SuspendRequest</C> safely decrements the request counter for the JS engine runtime associated with a given context, <C>cx</C>. <C>JS_SuspendRequest</C> returns the saved value of the request-depth counter stored in <C>cx</C>, which must be passed to the matching <C>JS_SuspendRequest</C> after the blocking or lengthy code completes.<P/>
<C>JS_SuspendRequest</C> is available only if you compile the JS engine with <C>JS_THREADSAFE</C> defined. In a default engine compilation, <C>JS_THREADSAFE</C> is undefined.<P/>
When your multi-threaded application restarts a previously suspended request, <C>JS_ResumeRequest</C> safely restores the request depth counter from <C>saveDepth</C> for the given context, <C>cx</C>. It does this by calling <C>JS_BeginRequest</C> exactly <C>saveDepth</C> times, so <C>saveDepth</C> must come from the return value of a prior <C>JS_SuspendRequest</C> call.
<C>JS_ResumeRequest</C> is available only if you compile the JS engine with <C>JS_THREADSAFE</C> defined. In a default engine compilation, <C>JS_THREADSAFE</C> is undefined.<P/>

<DESCRIPTION>
<C>JS_InitClass</C> builds a class structure, its object constructor, its prototype, its properties, and its methods. A class is an internal JS structure that is not exposed outside the JS engine. You can use a class, its properties, methods, and prototypes to build other objects that are exposed outside the engine.<P/>
<C>JS_InitClass</C> returns a pointer to a JS object that is the prototype for the newly initialized class. If <C>JS_InitClass</C> fails, then the pointer returned is <C>NULL</C>.<P/>
A class is comprised of a class structure, a constructor, a prototype object, and properties and functions. The class structure specifies the name of the class, its flags, and its property functions. These include functions for adding and deleting properties, getting and setting property values, and enumerating converting, resolving, and finalizing its properties.<P/>
The constructor for the class is built in the same context as <C>cx</C>, and in the same scope as <C>obj</C>. If you pass <C>NULL</C> to <C>JS_InitClass</C>, then a constructor is not built, and you cannot specify static properties and functions for the class.<P/>
If you provide a constructor for the class, then you should also pass an object to <C>parent_proto</C>. <C>JS_InitClass</C> uses <C>parent_proto</C> to build a prototype accessor object for the class. The accessor object is modeled on the prototype object you provide. If the accessor object is successfully created, <C>JS_InitClass</C> returns a pointer to the JS object. Otherwise it returns <C>NULL</C>, indicating failure to create the accessor object, and therefore failure to create the class itself.<P/>
After building the constructor and prototype, <C>JS_InitClass</C> adds the properties and methods of the constructor and prototype, if any, to the class definition. Properties and methods are either "dynamic," based on the properties and methods of the prototype object, or "static," based on the properties and methods of the constructor.<P/>

Alternative syntax when JS_THREADSAFE is defined in a multithreaded environment:
<C>JS_GetClass</C> returns a pointer to the class associated with a specified JS object, <C>obj</C>. The class is an internal JS data structure that you can create for objects as needed. Generally you do not expose a class in your applications, but use it behind the scenes.<P/>
If your application runs in a multithreaded environment, define <C>JS_THREADSAFE</C>, and pass a thread context as the first argument to <C>JS_GetClass</C>.<P/>
If an object has a class, <C>JS_GetClass</C> returns a pointer to the class structure. Otherwise, it returns <C>NULL</C>.<P/>

</SYNTAX>
<DESCRIPTION>
<C>JS_AliasProperty</C> assigns an alternate name for a property associated with a native object. <C>obj</C> is the object to which the property belongs. <C>name</C> is the property's current name in the object, and <C>alias</C> is the alternate name to assign to the property.<P/>
</DESCRIPTION>
<NOTE>
This feature is deprecated, meaning that it is currently supported only for backward compatibility with existing applications. Future versions of the engine may no longer support this function.<P/>
An alias does not replace a property's name; it supplements it, providing a second way to reference a property. If the alias is successfully created and associated with the property, <C>JS_AliasProperty</C> returns <C>JS_TRUE</C>. Creating an alias does not change the length of the property array.<P/>
If the property name you specify does not exist, <C>JS_AliasProperty</C> reports an error, and returns <C>JS_FALSE</C>. If the property is currently out of scope, already exists, or the alias itself cannot be assigned to the property, <C>JS_AliasProperty</C> does not report an error, but returns <C>JS_FALSE</C>.<P/>
Once you create an alias, you can reassign it to other properties as needed. Aliases can also be deleted. Deleting an alias does not delete the property to which it refers.<P/>

<DESCRIPTION>
<C>JS_NewArrayObject</C> creates a new array object in the <C>JSRuntime</C> of the specified <C>JSContext</C>, <C>cx</C>. If array creation is successful, <C>JS_NewArrayObject</C> initializes each element identified by index <C>i</C> from 0 to <C>length - 1</C> to have the value <C>vector[i]</C>, and then returns a pointer to the new object. Otherwise <C>JS_NewArrayObject</C> returns <C>NULL</C>.<P/>
<C>length</C> specifies the number of elements in the array. If <C>length</C> is <C>0</C>, <C>JS_NewArrayObject</C> creates an array object of length 0 and ignores <C>vector</C>.
</DESCRIPTION>
<NOTE>
It is often better to call <C>JS_NewArrayObject(cx, 0, NULL)</C>, store the returned object in a GC root, and then populate its elements with <C>JS_SetElement</C> or <C>JS_DefineElement</C>. This avoids unrooted <C>jsval</C>s in <C>vector</C> from being subject to garbage collection until the new object has been populated.

<C>JS_DefineElement</C> defines a single element or numeric property for a specified object, <C>obj</C>.<P/>
<C>index</C> is the slot number in the array for which to define an element. It may be an valid jsval integer. <C>value</C> is a jsval that defines the element's data type and initial value. <C>getter</C> and <C>setter</C> identify the <C>getProperty</C> and <C>setProperty</C> methods for the element, respectively. If you pass null values for these entries, <C>JS_DefineElement</C> assigns the default <C>getProperty</C> and <C>setProperty</C> methods to this element. <C>flags</C> contains the property flags to set for the newly created element.

</SYNTAX>
<DESCRIPTION>
<C>JS_AliasElement</C> assigns an alternate index number for an element or numeric property associated with a native object. <C>obj</C> is the object to which the element belongs. <C>name</C> is the element's current index in the object, and <C>alias</C> is the alternate index to assign to the element.<P/>
</DESCRIPTION>
<NOTE>
This feature is deprecated, meaning that it is currently supported only for backward compatibility with existing applications. Future versions of the engine may no longer support this function.<P/>
An alias does not replace an element's current index number; it supplements it, providing a second way to reference the element. If the alias is successfully created and associated with the property, <C>JS_AliasElement</C> returns <C>JS_TRUE</C>. Adding an alias element does not change the element array length.<P/>
If the property name you specify does not exist, <C>JS_AliasElement</C> reports an error, and returns <C>JS_FALSE</C>. If the element is currently out of scope, already exists, or the alias itself cannot be assigned to the element, <C>JS_AliasElement</C> does not report an error, but returns <C>JS_FALSE</C>.<P/>
Once you create an alias, you can reassign it to other elements as needed. Aliases can also be deleted. Deleting an alias does not delete the element to which it refers.<P/>

<SUMMARY>
Creates a new, static, Unicode-encoded, JS string of a specified size whose value is automatically shared by all string literals that are identical.
<C>JS_InternUCStringN</C> creates a new, Unicode-encoded JS string with a specified value, <C>s</C>, up to <C>length</C> characters in size, if it does not already exist. If the number of characters in <C>s</C> is greater than the number of characters specified in <C>length</C>, the new JS string contains a truncated version of the original string. If the number of characters in <C>s</C> is less than the number of bytes specified in <C>length</C>, the new JS string is padded with nulls to the specified length. <P/>
The char array, <C>s</C>, must be allocated on the heap. The JS string is an interned, Unicode version of <C>s</C>, meaning that independent C variables that define a matching string will, when translated to a JS string value using <C>JS_InternUCStringN</C>, share the same internal copy of the JS string, rather than define their own, separate copies in memory. Use this function to save space allocation on the heap.<P/>
If it creates or reuses an interned string, <C>JS_InternUCStringN</C> returns a pointer to the string. Otherwise, on error, it returns <C>NULL</C>.<P/>

<DESCRIPTION>
<C>JS_GetStringLength</C> reports the length, in characters, of a specified JS string, <C>str</C>. Note that JS strings are stored in Unicode format, so <C>JS_GetStringLength</C> does not report the number of bytes allocated to a string, but the number of characters in the string.<P/>

<SUMMARY>
Compares two JS strings, and reports the results of the comparison.
<C>JS_CompareStrings</C> compares two JS strings, <C>str1</C> and <C>str2</C>. If the strings are identical in content and size, <C>JS_CompareStrings</C> returns <C>0</C>.<P/>
If <C>str1</C> is greater than <C>str2</C>, either in terms of its internal alphabetic sort order, or because it is longer in length, <C>JS_CompareStrings</C> returns a positive value.<P/>
If <C>str1</C> is less than <C>str2</C>, either in terms of its internal alphabetic sort order, or because it is shorter in length, <C>JS_CompareStrings</C> returns a negative value.<P/>

</SYNTAX>
<DESCRIPTION>
<C>JS_ReportError</C> converts a format string and its arguments, <C>format</C>, into an error message using a sprintf-like conversion routine. The resulting string is automatically passed to the user-defined error reporting mechanism. That mechanism might display the error message in a console or dialog box window (as in Navigator 2.0 and greater), or might write the error message to an error log file maintained by the application.<P/>
Specify an error reporting mechanism for your application using <C>JS_SetErrorReporter</C>.<P/>

<PARAMname='er'type='JSErrorReporter'>
The user-defined error reporting function to use in your application.<BR/>
</PARAM>
</SYNTAX>
<DESCRIPTION>
<C>JS_SetErrorReporter</C> enables you to define and use your own error reporting mechanism in your applications. The reporter you define is automatically passed a <C>JSErrorReport</C> structure when an error occurs and has been parsed by <C>JS_ReportError</C>.<P/>
Typically, the error reporting mechanism you define should log the error where appropriate (such as to a log file), and display an error to the user of your application. The error you log and display can make use of the information passed about the error condition in the <C>JSErrorReport</C> structure.<P/>
