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

That works too,
Should I assume that this would be a part of the next tip ? I agree with the

Anyways, thanks a load for your help and just tell me if I could be of any

The following script does not seem to compile properly (using Rhino
1.5R1):
test.js:
var test = {};
test.foo = function () { print('foo')}
test.bar = function () { print('bar')}
After compiling test.js ("java org.mozilla.javascript.tools.jsc.Main
test.js"):
js> loadClass('test')
js> test.foo()
bar
js> load('test.js')
js> test.foo()
foo
Note that changing test.js to read:
var test = {};
test.foo = function foo() { print('foo')}
test.bar = function bar() { print('bar')}
Works around the problem. Is there a problem with anonymous functions?

The importPackage() and importClass() functions provided by the Rhino shell
seems as if they would be very generally useful. Unless I've missed
something, they don't seem to be available to scripts compiled using the
JavaScript compiler, or to scripts that are run using Script.exec(). Is
there any chance these functions could be made available for all scripts to
use? This would save a lot of typing; one could then always write a = new
Foo() instead of a = new Package.com.baz.bar.foo.Foo().

More changes to support non NativeJavaObject wrappers

Hi, Norris,
In post 1.5 rhino one can introduce own wrappers for arbitrary Java
objects. But I think to fully support this
org.mozilla.javascript.ScriptRuntime should be changes as well: its eq
and shallow_eq contain references to NativeJavaObject, this should be
replaced at least to Wrapper (see the atached patch). Even better
solution would be to add to WrapHandler methods to compare wrappers: I
can send a patch for that as well.
There is a small usability problem as well: if
org.mozilla.javascript.JavaMembers would be public I do not need to copy
it to a package with non NativeJavaObject.java wrapper.

I found a little oddity in
org.mozilla.javascript.optimizer.OptRuntime.thisGet().
get() is called twice on thisObj, once right at the beginning, and once
when starting to walk down the prototype chain. Below is what I think
this should look like - the prototype walk now begins with thisObj's
prototype, if it exists.
Also, (thisObj == null) was checked only after thisObj.get() was called,
so I moved that up in front.

I've made some more changes to shell.Main and shell.Global in order to
reduce their mutual dependency, enable "quit" and get "load" to operate
in the local scope.
see attachments for updated .diffs.

A Rhino user has complained about concurrency problems in the interpreter,
and I think the attached diff fixes some problems that could be caused if
the same interpreted function or script was called simultaneously from
two different threads.

You found a bug in Rhino; I wonder if others have been running into the same thing.
The problem is with a class called LazilyLoadedCtor. I wrote this class to reduce the
time
required by initStandardObjects by only creating standard objects when the associated
constructors are first accessed. The problem is that this class was not threadsafe.
I've
made changes to that class, and to ScriptableObject as well. The design of dynamic
properties calling getters and setters (which LazilyLoadedCtor uses) didn't really
allow
any way for the getter/setter to replace itself without a thread hazard. I've now
extended
setters so that they can return a value which replaces the getter/setter to avoid this
problem.
Thanks for finding this problem. There have been a couple of other reports of problems
in
this area, so I hope this will fix them.
The patch follows.

Hello,
I didn't want to post this directly as a rhino bug 'coz I think it may
be more of a JDK thing, but I thought I'd toss it to you as well.
The goal is to create a JavaScript object that implements a Java
interface. Straightforward enough and the example on the page using
ActionListener works without a hitch. However, when I try to do the
same with my own interface, I get an error message: error instantiating
({0}): class {1} is interface or abstract (coming from
NativeJavaClass.construct).
Here's where it gets a bit strange. Normally, I run with the jar files
in jre/lib/ext. When I remove the rhino files from jre/lib/ext and
reference them explicitly on the commandline with the -cp option, it
works as expected and my script can implement the interface just fine.
Go figure.
Anyhoo, there ya go. Like I said, I think its a JDK issue, but I
thought you'd be interested. The attached zipfile contains a set of
sample code to demonstrate this problem.
Thanks heaps,

var testcases = getTestCases();

return new Boolean(new MyObject(true));

this.valueOf = new Function( "return this.value" );

JavaAdapter return type conversion

Dear Rhino team,
When returning an array from a scripted Java object (i.e. a JS object
that implements a Java interface), no type conversion is performed, ie.
a NativeArray is returned instead of a Java array. Example:
Java:
interface Foo {
public String[] boo();
}
JS:
FooI = {
boo: function() { return ["Boo"];}
}
myFoo = new Packages.Foo(FooI);
myFoo.boo(); //==> breaks with a ClassCastException
Looking at the JavaAdapter code, there is no code for array conversion.
This is particularly bad because precisely such a conversion *does*
happen when calling a Java method from JS. So we end up with a
discrepancy.
See attachment for a patch to fix this and little test program. The
patch works by calling the coerceType function on NativeJavaObject,
which is the function responsible for doing the conversion when calling
from JS to Java. I've simplified the code so that this function gets
called for all non-primitive return type, not just arrays. There are
probably more efficient solutions but I'm not a Java bytecode hacker.
Matthias
PS: I didn't open a bug for this because I wasn't sure whether you guys

contextClassloader problem in ScriptRuntime.java

Hi, Norris, we are trying to create a Java class in JavaScript. When security manager is on, everything works fine. But when security
manager is off, we got an error saying the "... is not defined". The problem is that in ScriptRuntime.java, when security is on,
getContextClassLoader is null due to SecurityException and Class.forName is used to find the class, which works fine. When security
is off, ContextClassLoaderMethod is invoked to find the class. Since we use a separate thread to load third party jar files,
ContextClassLoaderMethod will throw a ClassNotFound exception.
To illustrate this problem, I wrote a simple applet, evaluating a simple js file in its paint method, which is running on a separate thread.
When security is off, I got the following:
ReferenceError: "Global" is not defined.

When security is on, it runs fine. Or if the code moved to init method, it works fine regardless of security. We are using JDK 1.2.2.
Howard
step += (InLeapYear(t) ? 29 : 28);
with the form
if (InLeapYear(t))
step += 29;
else
step += 28;
to work around an apparent JRE bug in which the code always returns 28.
