Note that as of this commit, there aren't any such throwers, and the
call site in Heap::allocate will drop exceptions on the floor. This
commit only serves to change the declaration of the overrides, make sure
they return an empty value, and to propagate OOM errors frm their base
initialize invocations.
This needs to happen before prototype/constructor intitialization can be
made lazy. Otherwise, GC could run during the C++ constructor and try to
collect the object currently being created.
Currently, for each exposed interface, we generate one massive function
to create every Web constructor and prototype. In an effort to lazily
create these instead, this first step is to extract the creation of each
of these into its own method.
First, this generates a forwarding header for all IDL types. This is to
allow callers to remain unchanged without forcing them to include the
(very heavy) generated IDL headers. This header is included by LibWeb's
forwarding header.
Next, this defines a base template method on Web::Bindings::Intrinsics
to create a prototype/constructor pair. Specializations of this template
are now generated in a new .cpp file, IntrinsicDefinitions.cpp. The base
Intrinsics class is updated to use this new method, and will continue to
cache the result.
Last, some WebAssembly classes are updated to use this new mechanism.
They were using some ad hoc cache keys that are now in line with the
generated specializations.
That one massive function is still used to invoke these specializations,
so they are not lazy as of this commit.
Note that js_rope_string() has been folded into this, the old name was
misleading - it would not always create a rope string, only if both
sides are not empty strings. Use a three-argument create() overload
instead.
This is needed to eventually share a header list between a Request or
Response object's internal infra request/response and the object's
exposed Header object.
- Prefer VM::current_realm() over GlobalObject::associated_realm()
- Prefer VM::heap() over GlobalObject::heap()
- Prefer Cell::vm() over Cell::global_object()
- Prefer Wrapper::vm() over Wrapper::global_object()
- Inline Realm::global_object() calls used to access intrinsics as they
will later perform a direct lookup without going through the global
object
This is a continuation of the previous five commits.
A first big step into the direction of no longer having to pass a realm
(or currently, a global object) trough layers upon layers of AOs!
Unlike the create() APIs we can safely assume that this is only ever
called when a running execution context and therefore current realm
exists. If not, you can always manually allocate the Error and put it in
a Completion :^)
In the spec, throw exceptions implicitly use the current realm's
intrinsics as well: https://tc39.es/ecma262/#sec-throw-an-exception
This is a continuation of the previous two commits.
As allocating a JS cell already primarily involves a realm instead of a
global object, and we'll need to pass one to the allocate() function
itself eventually (it's bridged via the global object right now), the
create() functions need to receive a realm as well.
The plan is for this to be the highest-level function that actually
receives a realm and passes it around, AOs on an even higher level will
use the "current realm" concept via VM::current_realm() as that's what
the spec assumes; passing around realms (or global objects, for that
matter) on higher AO levels is pointless and unlike for allocating
individual objects, which may happen outside of regular JS execution, we
don't need control over the specific realm that is being used there.
