When constructing a GlobalObject, it has to pass itself as the global
object to its own Shape. Since this is done in the Object constructor,
and Object is a base class of GlobalObject, it's not yet valid to cast
"this" to a GlobalObject*.
Fix this by having Shape store the global object as an Object& and move
Shape::global_object() to GlobalObject.h where we can at least perform a
valid static_cast in the getter.

Here's a reasonably faithful implementation of ECMAScript 2021 18.2.5.
Some corner cases are not covered, I've left them as FIXME's in the
included unit test.
Also I had to tweak JS::Value::to_i32() to always convert infinity to
zero, which is in accordance with ToInt32 AFAICT.
The current implementation is not entirely correct yet. Two classes have
been added:
- TypedArrayConstructor, which the various typed array constructors now
inherit from. Calling or constructing this class (from JS, that is)
directly is not possible, we might want to move this abstract class
functionality to NativeFunction at a later point.
- TypedArrayPrototype, which the various typed array prototypes now have
as their own prototype. This will be the place where most of the
functionality is being shared.
Relevant parts from the spec:
22.2.1 The %TypedArray% Intrinsic Object
The %TypedArray% intrinsic object:
- is a constructor function object that all of the TypedArray
constructor objects inherit from.
- along with its corresponding prototype object, provides common
properties that are inherited by all TypedArray constructors and their
instances.
22.2.2 Properties of the %TypedArray% Intrinsic Object
The %TypedArray% intrinsic object:
- has a [[Prototype]] internal slot whose value is %Function.prototype%.
22.2.2.3 %TypedArray%.prototype
The initial value of %TypedArray%.prototype is the %TypedArray%
prototype object.
22.2.6 Properties of the TypedArray Constructors
Each TypedArray constructor:
- has a [[Prototype]] internal slot whose value is %TypedArray%.
22.2.6.2 TypedArray.prototype
The initial value of TypedArray.prototype is the corresponding
TypedArray prototype intrinsic object (22.2.7).
22.2.7 Properties of the TypedArray Prototype Objects
Each TypedArray prototype object:
- has a [[Prototype]] internal slot whose value is %TypedArray.prototype%.
22.2.7.2 TypedArray.prototype.constructor
The initial value of a TypedArray.prototype.constructor is the
corresponding %TypedArray% intrinsic object.
This patch adds six of the standard type arrays and tries to share as
much code as possible:
- Uint8Array
- Uint16Array
- Uint32Array
- Int8Array
- Int16Array
- Int32Array
Proxy is an "exotic object" and doesn't have its own prototype. Use the
regular object prototype instead, but most stuff is happening on the
target object anyway. :^)
Both GlobalObject and LexicalEnvironment now inherit from ScopeObject,
and the VM's call frames point to a ScopeObject chain rather than just
a LexicalEnvironment chain.
This gives us much more flexibility to implement things like "with",
and also unifies some of the code paths that previously required
special handling of the global object.
There's a bunch of more cleanup that can be done in the wake of this
change, and there might be some oversights in the handling of the
"super" keyword, but this generally seems like a good architectural
improvement. :^)
Instead of performing a prototype transition for every new object we
create via {}, prebake the object returned by Object::create_empty()
with a shape with ObjectPrototype as the prototype.
We also prebake the shape for the object assigned to the "prototype"
property of new ScriptFunction objects, since those are extremely
common and that code broke from this change anyway.
This avoid a large number of transitions and is a small speed-up on
test-js.
Roughly 7% of test-js runtime was spent creating FlyStrings from string
literals. This patch frontloads that work and caches all the commonly
used names in LibJS on a CommonPropertyNames struct that hangs off VM.
Each JS global object has its own "console", so it makes more sense to
store it in GlobalObject.
We'll need some smartness later to bundle up console messages from all
the different frames that make up a page later, but this works for now.
With the addition of symbol keys, work can now be done on starting to
implement the well-known symbol functionality. The most important of
these well-known symbols is by far Symbol.iterator.
This patch adds IteratorPrototype, as well as ArrayIterator and
ArrayIteratorPrototype. In the future, sometime after StringIterator has
also been added, this will allow us to use Symbol.iterator directly in
for..of loops, enabling the use of custom iterator objects. Also makes
adding iterator support to native objects much easier (as will have to
be done for Map and Set, when they get added).
Instead of taking the JS::Heap&. This allows us to get rid of some
calls to JS::Interpreter::global_object(). We're getting closer and
closer to multiple global objects. :^)
To allow implementing the DOM class hierarchy in JS bindings, this
patch adds an inherits() function that can be used to ask an Object
if it inherits from a specific C++ class (by name).
The necessary overrides are baked into each Object subclass by the
new JS_OBJECT macro, which works similarly to C_OBJECT in LibCore.
Thanks to @Dexesttp for suggesting this approach. :^)
To make sure that everything is set up correctly in objects before we
start adding properties to them, we split cell allocation into 3 steps:
1. Allocate a cell of appropriate size from the Heap
2. Call the C++ constructor on the cell
3. Call initialize() on the constructed object
The job of initialize() is to define all the initial properties.
Doing it in a second pass guarantees that the Object has a valid Shape
and can find its own GlobalObject.
More work towards supporting multiple global objects. Native C++ code
now get a GlobalObject& and don't have to ask the Interpreter for it.
I've added macros for declaring and defining native callbacks since
this was pretty tedious and this makes it easier next time we want to
change any of these signatures.
Previously, the Object class had many different types of functions for
each action. For example: get_by_index, get(PropertyName),
get(FlyString). This is a bit verbose, so these methods have been
shortened to simply use the PropertyName structure. The methods then
internally call _by_index if necessary. Note that the _by_index
have been made private to enforce this change.
Secondly, a clear distinction has been made between "putting" and
"defining" an object property. "Putting" should mean modifying a
(potentially) already existing property. This is akin to doing "a.b =
'foo'".
This implies two things about put operations:
- They will search the prototype chain for setters and call them, if
necessary.
- If no property exists with a particular key, the put operation
should create a new property with the default attributes
(configurable, writable, and enumerable).
In contrast, "defining" a property should completely overwrite any
existing value without calling setters (if that property is
configurable, of course).
Thus, all of the many JS objects have had any "put" calls changed to
"define_property" calls. Additionally, "put_native_function" and
"put_native_property" have had their "put" replaced with "define".
Finally, "put_own_property" has been made private, as all necessary
functionality should be exposed with the put and define_property
methods.
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. :^)
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. :^)
LibWeb now creates a WindowObject which inherits from GlobalObject.
Allocation of the global object is moved out of the Interpreter ctor
to allow for specialized construction.
The existing Window interfaces are moved to WindowObject with their
implementation code in the new Window class.
Instead of implementing every native function as a lambda function,
use static member functions instead.
This makes it easier to navigate the code + backtraces look nicer. :^)
