- Optimize integer ++ and -- to avoid double-to-int, which is quite costly for
some compilers (ftol on Windows with MSVC).
- Optimized arguments[i] and arguments.length references to use bytecodes that
avoid creating an arguments object for the current frame. This entailed
simplifying the compiler to avoid flagging functions and scripts that set
arguments, since we have code in jsfun.c to catch such sets at runtime.
- The code generator now eliminates useless expression statements, giving a
strict warning about them.
- Rationalized jsemit.c's LookupArgOrVar to have well-defined results in *pn.
- Code generation errors set report->filename and report->lineno, rather than
hacking "{0}, line {1}: " into the localized message.
- Bogus JSFRAME_VAROBJBUG removed, JSOPTION_VAROBJFIX is sufficient.
- Spruce up jsinterp.c macros to use JS_BEGIN/END_MACRO brackets if possible.
- Avoid calling JS_PropertyStub. The call is too costly compared to a branch
in the caller.

minor Rhino bug

Norris,
While using the new Rhino debugger (from the latest tip) I started to get "No
Context associated with current Thread" exceptions when expanding host objects
in the "Context:" debugger window.
In looking at the code, I discovered that NativeObject.toString seems to assume
that Context.getContext() may return null. In fact, getContext() always returns
a non-null context or throws an exception.
I changed NativeObject.toString to never throw an exception (see below) and this
eliminated the problem I was seeing (of course).
It would be nice to incorporate this in a future Rhino tip or, if this change is
inappropriate, any guidance would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
I changed NativeObject.toString to:
public String toString() {
try {
Context cx = Context.getContext();
return jsFunction_toString(cx, this, null, null);
}
catch (Exception e) {
return "[object " + getClassName() + "]";
}
}
from:
public String toString() {
Context cx = Context.getContext();
if (cx != null)
return jsFunction_toString(cx, this, null, null);
else
return "[object " + getClassName() + "]";
}

I also looked at other places with similar pattern of few lines of
common code to construct error messages. The following was occurred too
often not to avoid temptations to move it to a separated function:
NativeGlobal.constructError(
Context.getContext(), "TypeError",
ScriptRuntime.getMessage1("msg.default.value", arg),
this)
It can be replaced by
NativeGlobal.typeError1("msg.default.value", arg, this)
There are other similar usages but they are not to frequent to bother
with code reduction because even the above replacement saves just 200
bytes in uncompressed jars (it is expensive to introduce new methods in
Java).
In any case, if you think it makes any sense, patches are attached. They
are made via
diff -cbB javascript.orig javascript > patch_context
diff -bB javascript.orig javascript > patch_std
from org/mozilla directory.

Norris.....I like the changes made to FunctionObject to do method invocation
much faster. Very slick.
Problem tho: this mechanism does not veer into the security support plugin
on context for defining a class. This is crucial do creating event adapter
code later in applet environments.
I'm going to look into this, but perhaps you could probably make the changes
faster than I.
Unfortunately for us, we found this problem yesterday at a customer site.
:-( Shame on us.

Hi, Norris!
With my previous patch to fix in
org/mozilla/javascript/ScriptRuntime.java Integer.MIN_VALUE as index
problem I also added a bug to the unrelated code: I tried to minimize
object creation and unfortunately that untested "optimization" slippet
into my patch as well.
I replaced the lines 290, 291 in toNumber(String s) method from
String sub = s.substring(start, end+1);
if (sub.equals("Infinity"))
to
if (s.regionMatches(start, "Infinity", 0, 8))
But that should be
if (start + 7 == end && s.regionMatches(start, "Infinity", 0, 8))
Sory for troubles, Igor
290c290
< if (s.regionMatches(start, "Infinity", 0, 8))

Kurt, Norris,
Yes, with the change to the shell this should be possible. The problem before
was that if you loaded the same file with different relative path names, two
different windows in the debugger were created because everything (windows,
breakpoints, etc) is keyed off the source name.
The attached file contains the fix (and includes the workaround for
Desktop.getSelectedFrame).
There are still some bugs in transferring focus between the windows in the
Desktop. I haven't had time to track down the problem or a solution.

That works too,
Should I assume that this would be a part of the next tip ? I agree with the
part about
overloading code too.
Anyways, thanks a load for your help and just tell me if I could be of any
help in any other
respects of the rhino project.
