Norris,
I realize this is probably a nuisance, but the following problem causes our
regression test suite to fail:
js> foo = new Error("bar")
undefined: bar
js> foo.name Error
js> foo.toString()
undefined: bar
Our test suite expects:
js> foo = new Error("bar")
Error: bar
js> foo.name Error
js> foo.toString()
Error: bar
I have not yet tried the debugger with the RC2 release, but I expect to get
to that later today.
I hope I'm not to late to influence the 1.5R3 release.
Thanks,
dave
understand exactly what the problem is here, and it does not seem to
happen on gcc 2.96, and 2.95 doesn't have the alias optimizations that
called for the new code in the first place, just make 2.95 use the old
code. r=timeless, sr=brendan.
We have found a problem in string.replace() when replacing a regular
expression with a dollar sign. The following code works right when the
replacement string does not contain "$":
$ java -jar js.jar
js> var re = new RegExp("%%%");
js> var price = "%%% 1.99";
js> price.replace(re, "USD");
USD 1.99
js> price.replace(re, "$");

We are converting from spidermonkey to rhino and it appears that the
name property for the constructor function returns "constructor" for
all builtin types. Spidermonkey would return "Date" or "Array" or
whatever. Is there a workaround? This code needs to work with both
interpreters.
Here is an example of the rhino behavior:
js> var i=new Date;
js> i.constructor.name
constructor
js> Date.name
constructor
js> function bob(){}
js> bob.name
bob
js> var i = new Array();
js> i.constructor.name
constructor
js>
