This patch adds instance, constructor and prototype classes for:
- EvalError
- InternalError
- RangeError
- ReferenceError
- SyntaxError
- TypeError
- URIError
Enumerator macros are used to reduce the amount of typing. :^)
Object.defineProperty() can now change the attributes of a property
already on the object. Internally this becomes a shape transition with
the TransitionType::Configure. Such transitions don't expand the
property storage capacity, but rather simply keep attributes up to date
when generating a property table.
We now care (a little bit) about the "configurable" and "writable"
property attributes.
Property attributes are stored together with the property name in
the Shape object. Forward transitions are not attribute-savvy and will
cause poor Shape reuse in the case of multiple same-name properties
with different attributes.
Oh, and this patch also adds Object.getOwnPropertyDescriptor() :^)
We already have "global" as a way to access the global object in js(1)
(both REPL and script mode). This replaces it with "globalThis", which
is available in all environments, not just js.
This patch adds very basic XMLHttpRequest support to LibWeb. Here's an
example that currently works:
var callback = function() { alert(this.responseText); }
var xhr = new XMLHttpRequest();
xhr.addEventListener("load", callback);
xhr.open("GET", "http://serenityos.org/~kling/test/example.txt");
xhr.send();
There are many limitations and bugs, but it's pretty dang awesome that
we have XHR. :^)
Many other parsers call it with this name.
Also Type can be confusing in this context since the DeclarationType is
not the type (number, string, etc.) of the variables that are being
declared by the VariableDeclaration.
The PropertyName class able to match a number or an array can only
accept positive numerical values. However, the computed_property_name
method sometimes returned negative values.
This commit also adds a basic object access test case.
This patch adds a new kind of JS::Value, the empty value.
It's what you get when you do JSValue() (or most commonly, {} in C++.)
An empty Value signifies the absence of a value, and should never be
visible to JavaScript itself. As of right now, it's used for array
holes and as a return value when an exception has been thrown and we
just want to unwind.
This patch is a bit of a mess as I had to fix a whole bunch of code
that was relying on JSValue() being undefined, etc.
Now that we have two separate storages for Object properties depending
on what kind of index they have, it's nice to have an abstraction that
still allows us to say "here's a property name".
We use PropertyName to always choose the optimal storage path directly
while interpreting the AST. :^)
Objects can have both named and indexed properties. Previously we kept
all property names as strings. This patch separates named and indexed
properties and splits them between Object::m_storage and m_elements.
This allows us to do much faster array-style access using numeric
indices. It also makes the Array class much less special, since all
Objects now have number-indexed storage. :^)
