This includes:
- Parsing proper LabelledStatements with try_parse_labelled_statement()
- Removing LabelableStatement
- Implementing the LoopEvaluation semantics via loop_evaluation() in
each IterationStatement subclass; and IterationStatement evaluation
via {For,ForIn,ForOf,ForAwaitOf,While,DoWhile}Statement::execute()
- Updating ReturnStatement, BreakStatement and ContinueStatement to
return the appropriate completion types
- Basically reimplementing TryStatement and SwitchStatement according to
the spec, using completions
- Honoring result completion types in AsyncBlockStart and
OrdinaryCallEvaluateBody
- Removing any uses of the VM unwind mechanism - most importantly,
VM::throw_exception() now exclusively sets an exception and no longer
triggers any unwinding mechanism.
However, we already did a good job updating all of LibWeb and userland
applications to not use it, and the few remaining uses elsewhere don't
rely on unwinding AFAICT.
Instead of slapping 0..N labels on a statement like the current
LabelableStatement does, we need the spec's LabelledStatement for a
proper implementation of control flow using only completions - it always
has one label and one labelled statement - what appears to be 'multiple
labels' on the same statement is actually nested LabelledStatements.
Note that this is unused yet and will fully replace LabelableStatement
in the next commit.
This is another major milestone on our journey towards removing global
VM exception state :^)
Does pretty much exactly what it says on the tin: updating
ASTNode::execute() to return a Completion instead of a plain value. This
will *also* allow us to eventually remove the non-standard unwinding
mechanism and purely rely on the various completion types.
In the end this is a nicer API than having separate has_{value,target}()
and having to check those first, and then making another Optional from
the unwrapped value:
completion.has_value() ? completion.value() : Optional<Value> {}
// ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
// Implicit creation of non-empty Optional<Value>
This way we need to unwrap the optional ourselves, but can easily pass
it to something else as well.
This is in anticipation of the AST using completions :^)
The spec has a note stating that resolve binding will always return a
reference whose [[ReferencedName]] field is name. However this is not
correct as the underlying method GetIdentifierReference may throw on
env.HasBinding(name) thus it can throw. However, there are some
scenarios where it cannot throw because the reference is known to exist
in that case we use MUST with a comment.
Exactly like in 99f9609, which fixed the same issue in CallExpression,
the spec tells us to *first* evaluate the arguments, if any, and *then*
check if the provided value is a constructor function.
Being really close to Object.prototype.valueOf() name wise makes this
unnecessarily confusing - while it sometimes serves as the
implementation of a valueOf() function, it's an abstraction which the
spec doesn't have.
Use the appropriate getters to retrieve specific internal slots instead,
most commonly [[FooData]] from the primitive wrapper objects.
For the Object class specifically, use the Value(Object*) ctor instead.
This commit adds support for the most bare bones version of async
functions, support for async generator functions, async arrow functions
and await expressions are TODO.
By replacing this VERIFY with a thrown Error we no longer crash when
calling a generator function in the AST interpreter. This allows us to
more gracefully handle situation which have not been implemented yet.
In particular this helps the libjs-test262-runner since it can now
continue on to the next tests instead of having the entire process end.
This one is a bit unusual, so to clarify:
Previously, callers of get_iterator_values() would supply a callback
that would return an IterationDecision, and an enum to indicate whether
iterator_close() should be invoked upon IterationDecision::Break.
Now, use of both those enums is removed, and callers must return an
Optional<Completion>. If a Completion is provided, the iterator will be
closed, and that completion will be returned from get_iterator_values.
Otherwise, once the iterator is exhausted, a default-initialized
Completion will be returned.
This is necessary as we might have to perform named evaluation with the
field name.
Ideally we would also skip some setup parts of the function like
function_declaration_instantiation however this would require bigger
changes to ECMAScriptFunctionObject.
