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

expressions. The method "prefix" on a RegExp behaves exactly the same
as the "exec" method except it returns "undefined" if the match failed
because there was an insufficient number of characters in the
input. E.g.
/^foo/.prefix("foo") => ["foo"] (just like exec)
/^foo/.prefix("fox") => null (just like exec)
/^foo/.prefix("fo") => undefined (whereas exec returns null)

I found something unusual to me when I hacking the Rhino source code.
In tagify method of NativeString Class,
When it adds tag to its string(this.string), it does not use quotation
marks.
For example, the result of tagify("A HREF", "A", value) in
jsFunction_link(String value) is
<A HREF=Some Value>Original String Value</A>
Not,
<A HREF="Some Value">Original String Value</A>
This question might sound silly, but I'm curious why.
Thanks in advance,
Nam

- Optimize compile (parse+emit) operation to generate code for each top-level
statement or function in turn, recycling JSParseNodes as we go for greatly
reduced "long linear script" footprint.
- Fix O(n**2) growth problems in bytecode and srcnote generation.
- Add js_ParseTokenStream entry point to compiler, for tree-generation without
code-generation. Move JSOP_EVAL instruction selection from code-generator to
parser, to match other such specializations and enable js_ParseTokenStream.
- Fix js_CompileTokenStream (and get it right in new js_ParseTokenStream) to
respect JSOPTION_VAROBJFIX.
- Clean up bracing, multi-line conditions, and overlong lines.
