Similar to create() in LibJS, wrap() et al. are on a low enough level to
warrant passing a Realm directly instead of relying on the current realm
from the VM, as a wrapper may need to be allocated while no JS is being
executed.
This is a continuation of the previous six commits.
The global object is only needed to return it if the execution context
stack is empty, but that doesn't seem like a useful thing to allow in
the first place - if you're not currently executing JS, and the
execution context stack is empty, there is no this value to retrieve.
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 three commits.
Now that create() receives the allocating realm, we can simply forward
that to allocate(), which accounts for the majority of these changes.
Additionally, we can get rid of the realm_from_global_object() in one
place, with one more remaining in VM::throw_completion().
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.
This is a continuation of the previous commit.
Calling initialize() is the first thing that's done after allocating a
cell on the JS heap - and in the common case of allocating an object,
that's where properties are assigned and intrinsics occasionally
accessed.
Since those are supposed to live on the realm eventually, this is
another step into that direction.
No functional changes - we can still very easily get to the global
object via `Realm::global_object()`. This is in preparation of moving
the intrinsics to the realm and no longer having to pass a global
object when allocating any object.
In a few (now, and many more in subsequent commits) places we get a
realm using `GlobalObject::associated_realm()`, this is intended to be
temporary. For example, create() functions will later receive the same
treatment and are passed a realm instead of a global object.
Similar to commit becec35, our code point display name data was a large
list of StringViews. RLE can be used here as well to remove about 32 MB
from the initialized data section to the read-only section.
Some of the refactoring to store strings as indices into an RLE array
also lets us clean up some of the code point name generators.
Currently, the unique string lists are stored in the initialized data
sections of their shared libraries. In order to move the data to the
read-only section, generate the strings using RLE arrays.
We generate two arrays: the first is the RLE data itself, the second is
a list of indices into the RLE array for each string. We then generate a
decoding method to convert an RLE string to a StringView.
This isn't called out in TR-35, but before ICU even looks at CLDR data,
it adds a hard-coded set of default patterns to each locale's calendar.
It has done this since 2006 when its DateTimeFormat feature was first
created. Several test262 tests depend on this, which under ECMA-402,
falls into "implementation defined" behavior. For compatibility, we
can do the same in LibUnicode.
In the generated unique string list, index 0 is the empty string, and is
used to indicate a value doesn't exist in the CLDR. Check for this
before returning an empty calendar symbol.
For example, an upcoming commit will add the fixed day period "noon",
which not all locales support.
Commit ec7d535 only partially handled the case of flexible day periods
rolling over midnight, in that it only worked for hours after midnight.
For example, the en locale defines a day period range of [21:00, 06:00).
The previous method of adding 24 hours to the given hour would change
e.g. 23:00 to 47:00, which isn't valid.
When patterns, grouping digits, symbols, etc. for a requested numbering
system are not found, use the locale's default numbering system. This
will allow using the correct digits e.g. for the locale "en-u-nu-arab"
even though the "en" locale only contains patterns for the "latn"
numbering system.
Replacement conditions for `requires_argument` have been chosen based
on what would be most convenient for implementing an eventual optional
argument mode.
While null StringViews are just as bad, these prevent the removal of
StringView(char const*) as that constructor accepts a nullptr.
No functional changes.
This prevents us from needing a sv suffix, and potentially reduces the
need to run generic code for a single character (as contains,
starts_with, ends_with etc. for a char will be just a length and
equality check).
No functional changes.
Each of these strings would previously rely on StringView's char const*
constructor overload, which would call __builtin_strlen on the string.
Since we now have operator ""sv, we can replace these with much simpler
versions. This opens the door to being able to remove
StringView(char const*).
No functional changes.
Error::from_string_literal now takes direct char const*s, while
Error::from_string_view does what Error::from_string_literal used to do:
taking StringViews. This change will remove the need to insert `sv`
after error strings when returning string literal errors once
StringView(char const*) is removed.
No functional changes.
This commit moves the length calculations out to be directly on the
StringView users. This is an important step towards the goal of removing
StringView(char const*), as it moves the responsibility of calculating
the size of the string to the user of the StringView (which will prevent
naive uses causing OOB access).
These are mostly minor mistakes I've encountered while working on the
removal of StringView(char const*). The usage of builder.put_string over
Format<FormatString>::format is preferrable as it will avoid the
indirection altogether when there's no formatting to be done. Similarly,
there is no need to do format(builder, "{}", number) when
builder.put_u64(number) works equally well.
Additionally a few Strings where only constant strings were used are
replaced with StringViews.
To prepare for using plural rules within number & duration format, this
removes the NumberFormat::Plurality enumeration.
This also adds PluralCategory::ExactlyZero & PluralCategory::ExactlyOne.
These are used in locales like French, where PluralCategory::One really
means any value from 0.00 to 1.99. PluralCategory::ExactlyOne means only
the value 1, as the name implies. These exact rules are not known by the
general plural rules, they are explicitly for number / currency format.
