Use 'full compiler' when debugging is active. This should increase |
| 4466 |
the density of possible break points, making single step more fine |

debugging has been started, so recompilation of all functions is |
| 4469 |
required to get the full effect. IA32 and x64 only for now. |

Fixed problem with the receiver passed to functions called from |
| 5800 |
eval (issue 124). |
| 5801 |
|
| 5802 |
|
| 5803 |
2008-10-16: Version 0.3.5 |
| 5804 |
|
| 5805 |
Improved string hash-code distribution by excluding bit-field bits |
| 5806 |
from the hash-code. |
| 5807 |
|
| 5808 |
Changed string search algorithm used in indexOf from KMP to |
| 5809 |
Boyer-Moore. |
| 5810 |
|
| 5811 |
Improved the generated code for the instanceof operator. |
| 5812 |
|
| 5813 |
Improved performance of slow-case string equality checks by |
| 5814 |
specializing the code based on the string representation. |
| 5815 |
|
| 5816 |
Improve the handling of out-of-memory situations (issue 70). |
| 5817 |
|
| 5818 |
Improved performance of strict equality checks. |
| 5819 |
|
| 5820 |
Improved profiler output to make it easier to see anonymous |
| 5821 |
functions. |
| 5822 |
|
| 5823 |
Improved performance of slow-case keyed loads. |
| 5824 |
|
| 5825 |
Improved property access performance by allocating a number of |
| 5826 |
properties in the front object. |
| 5827 |
|
| 5828 |
Changed the toString behavior on the built-in object constructors |
| 5829 |
to print [native code] instead of the actual source. Some web |
| 5830 |
applications do not like constructors with complex toString |
| 5831 |
results. |
| 5832 |
|
| 5833 |
|
| 5834 |
2008-10-06: Version 0.3.4 |
| 5835 |
|
| 5836 |
Changed Array.prototype.sort to use quick sort. |
| 5837 |
|
| 5838 |
Fixed code generation issue where leaving a finally block with |
| 5839 |
break or continue would accumulate elements on the expression |
| 5840 |
stack (issue 86). |
| 5841 |
|
| 5842 |
Made sure that the name accessor on functions returns the expected |
| 5843 |
names for builtin JavaScript functions and C++ callback functions. |
| 5844 |
|
| 5845 |
Added fast case code for extending the property storage array of |
| 5846 |
JavaScript objects. |
| 5847 |
|
| 5848 |
Ported switch statement optimizations introduced in version 0.3.3 |
| 5849 |
to the ARM code generator. |
| 5850 |
|
| 5851 |
Allowed GCC to use strict-aliasing rules when compiling. |
| 5852 |
|
| 5853 |
Improved performance of arguments object allocation by taking care |
| 5854 |
of arguments adaptor frames in the generated code. |
| 5855 |
|
| 5856 |
Updated the V8 benchmark suite to version 2. |
| 5857 |
|
| 5858 |
|
| 5859 |
2008-09-25: Version 0.3.3 |
| 5860 |
|
| 5861 |
Improved handling of relocation information to enable more |
| 5862 |
peep-hole optimizations. |
| 5863 |
|
| 5864 |
Optimized switch statements where all labels are constant small |
| 5865 |
integers. |
| 5866 |
|
| 5867 |
Optimized String.prototype.indexOf for common cases. |
| 5868 |
|
| 5869 |
Fixed more build issues (issue 80). |
| 5870 |
|
| 5871 |
Fixed a couple of profiler issues. |
| 5872 |
|
| 5873 |
Fixed bug where the body of a function created using the Function |
| 5874 |
constructor was not allowed to end with a single-line comment |
| 5875 |
(issue 85). |
| 5876 |
|
| 5877 |
Improved handling of object literals by canonicalizing object |
| 5878 |
literal maps. This will allow JSON objects with the same set of |
| 5879 |
properties to share the same map making inline caching work better |
| 5880 |
for JSON objects. |
| 5881 |
|
| 5882 |
|
| 5883 |
2008-09-17: Version 0.3.2 |
| 5884 |
|
| 5885 |
Generalized the EvalCache into a CompilationCache and enabled it |
| 5886 |
for scripts too. The current strategy is to retire all entries |
| 5887 |
whenever a mark-sweep collection is started. |
| 5888 |
|
| 5889 |
Fixed bug where switch statements containing only a default case |
| 5890 |
would lead to an unbalanced stack (issue 69). |
| 5891 |
|
| 5892 |
Fixed bug that made access to the function in a named function |
| 5893 |
expression impossible in certain situations (issue 24). |
| 5894 |
|
| 5895 |
Fixed even more build issues. |
| 5896 |
|
| 5897 |
Optimized calling conventions on ARM. The conventions on ARM and |
| 5898 |
IA-32 now match. |
| 5899 |
|
| 5900 |
Removed static initializers for flags and counters. |
| 5901 |
|
| 5902 |
Improved inline caching behavior for uncommon cases where lazily |
| 5903 |
loading Date and RegExp code could force certain code paths go |
| 5904 |
megamorphic. |
| 5905 |
|
| 5906 |
Removed arguments adaption for builtins written in C++. This |
| 5907 |
makes Array.prototype.push and Array.prototype.pop slightly |
| 5908 |
faster. |
| 5909 |
|
| 5910 |
|
| 5911 |
2008-09-11: Version 0.3.1 |
| 5912 |
|
| 5913 |
Fixed a number of build issues. |
| 5914 |
|
| 5915 |
Fixed problem with missing I-cache flusing on ARM. |
| 5916 |
|
| 5917 |
Changed space layout in memory management by splitting up |
| 5918 |
code space into old data space and code space. |
| 5919 |
|
| 5920 |
Added utf-8 conversion support to the API (issue 57). |
| 5921 |
|
| 5922 |
Optimized repeated calls to eval with the same strings. These |
| 5923 |
repeated calls are common in web applications. |
| 5924 |
|
| 5925 |
Added Xcode project file. |
| 5926 |
|
| 5927 |
Optimized a couple of Array operation. |
| 5928 |
|
| 5929 |
Fixed parser bug by checking for end-of-string when parsing break |
| 5930 |
and continue (issue 35). |
| 5931 |
|
| 5932 |
Fixed problem where asian characters were not categorized as |
| 5933 |
letters. |
| 5934 |
|
| 5935 |
Fixed bug that disallowed calling functions fetched from an array |
| 5936 |
using a string as an array index (issue 32). |
| 5937 |
|
| 5938 |
Fixed bug where the internal field count on object templates were |
| 5939 |
sometimes ignored (issue 54). |
| 5940 |
|
| 5941 |
Added -f option to the shell sample for compatibility with other |
| 5942 |
engines (issue 18). |
| 5943 |
|
| 5944 |
Added source info to TryCatches in the API. |
| 5945 |
|
| 5946 |
Fixed problem where the seed for the random number generator was |
| 5947 |
clipped in a double to unsigned int conversion. |
| 5948 |
|
| 5949 |
Fixed bug where cons string symbols were sometimes converted to |
| 5950 |
non-symbol flat strings during GC. |
| 5951 |
|
| 5952 |
Fixed bug in error reporting when attempting to convert null to an |
| 5953 |
object. |
| 5954 |
|
| 5955 |
|
| 5956 |
2008-09-04: Version 0.3.0 |
| 5957 |
|
| 5958 |
Added support for running tests on the ARM simulator. |
| 5959 |
|
| 5960 |
Fixed bug in the 'in' operator where negative indices were not |
| 5961 |
treated correctly. |
| 5962 |
|
| 5963 |
Fixed build issues on gcc-4.3.1. |
| 5964 |
|
| 5965 |
Changed Date.prototype.toLocaleTimeString to not print the |
| 5966 |
timezone part of the time. |
| 5967 |
|
| 5968 |
Renamed debug.h to v8-debug.h to reduce the risk of name conflicts |
| 5969 |
with user code. |
| 5970 |
|
| 5971 |
|
| 5972 |
2008-09-02: Version 0.2.5 |
| 5973 |
|
| 5974 |
Renamed the top level directory 'public' to 'include'. |
| 5975 |
|
| 5976 |
Added 'env' option to the SCons build scripts to support |
| 5977 |
overriding the ENV part of the build environment. This is mostly |
| 5978 |
to support Windows builds in cases where SCons cannot find the |
| 5979 |
correct paths to the Windows SDK, as these paths cannot be passed |
| 5980 |
through shell environment variables. |
| 5981 |
|
| 5982 |
Enabled "Buffer Security Check" on for the Windows SCons build and |
| 5983 |
added the linker option /OPT:ICF as an optimization. |
| 5984 |
|
| 5985 |
Added the V8 benchmark suite to the repository. |
| 5986 |
|
| 5987 |
|
| 5988 |
2008-09-01: Version 0.2.4 |
| 5989 |
|
| 5990 |
Included mjsunit JavaScript test suite and C++ unit tests. |
| 5991 |
|
| 5992 |
Changed the shell sample to not print the result of executing a |
| 5993 |
script provided on the command line. |
| 5994 |
|
| 5995 |
Fixed issue when building samples on Windows using a shared V8 |
| 5996 |
library. Added visibility option on Linux build which makes the |
| 5997 |
generated library 18% smaller. |
| 5998 |
|
| 5999 |
Changed build system to accept multiple build modes in one build |
| 6000 |
and generate separate objects, libraries and executables for each |
| 6001 |
mode. |
| 6002 |
|
| 6003 |
Removed deferred negation optimization (a * -b => -(a * b)) since |
| 6004 |
this visibly changes operand conversion order. |
| 6005 |
|
| 6006 |
Improved parsing performance by introducing stack guard in |
| 6007 |
preparsing. Without a stack guard preparsing always bails out |
| 6008 |
with stack overflow. |
| 6009 |
|
| 6010 |
Changed shell sample to take flags directly from the command-line. |
| 6011 |
Added API call that implements this. |
| 6012 |
|
| 6013 |
Added load, quit and version functions to the shell sample so it's |
| 6014 |
easier to run benchmarks and tests. |
| 6015 |
|
| 6016 |
Fixed issue with building samples and cctests on 64-bit machines. |
| 6017 |
|
| 6018 |
Fixed bug in the runtime system where the prototype chain was not |
| 6019 |
always searched for a setter when setting a property that does not |
| 6020 |
exist locally. |
| 6021 |
|
| 6022 |
|
| 6023 |
2008-08-14: Version 0.2.3 |
| 6024 |
|
| 6025 |
Improved performance of garbage collection by moving the |
| 6026 |
function that updates pointers during compacting collection |
| 6027 |
into the updating visitor. This gives the compiler a better |
| 6028 |
chance to inline and avoid a function call per (potential) |
| 6029 |
pointer. |
| 6030 |
|
| 6031 |
Extended the shell sample with a --runtime-flags option. |
| 6032 |
|
| 6033 |
Added Visual Studio project files for the shell.cc and |
| 6034 |
process.cc samples. |
| 6035 |
|
| 6036 |
|
| 6037 |
2008-08-13: Version 0.2.2 |
| 6038 |
|
| 6039 |
Improved performance of garbage collection by changing the way |
| 6040 |
we use the marking stack in the event of stack overflow during |
| 6041 |
full garbage collection and by changing the way we mark roots. |
| 6042 |
|
| 6043 |
Cleaned up ARM version by removing top of stack caching and by |
| 6044 |
introducing push/pop elimination. |
| 6045 |
|
| 6046 |
Cleaned up the way runtime functions are called to allow |
| 6047 |
runtime calls with no arguments. |
| 6048 |
|
| 6049 |
Changed Windows build options to make sure that exceptions are |
| 6050 |
disabled and that optimization flags are enabled. |
| 6051 |
|
| 6052 |
Added first version of Visual Studio project files. |
| 6053 |
|
| 6054 |
|
| 6055 |
2008-08-06: Version 0.2.1 |
| 6056 |
|
| 6057 |
Improved performance of unary addition by avoiding runtime calls. |
| 6058 |
|
| 6059 |
Fixed the handling of '>' and '<=' to use right-to-left conversion |
| 6060 |
and left-to-right evaluation as specified by ECMA-262. |
| 6061 |
|
| 6062 |
Fixed a branch elimination bug on the ARM platform where incorrect |
| 6063 |
code was generated because of overly aggressive branch |
| 6064 |
elimination. |
| 6065 |
|
| 6066 |
Improved performance of code that repeatedly assigns the same |
| 6067 |
function to the same property of different objects with the same |
| 6068 |
map. |
| 6069 |
|
| 6070 |
Untangled DEBUG and ENABLE_DISASSEMBLER defines. The disassembler |
| 6071 |
no longer expects DEBUG to be defined. |
| 6072 |
|
| 6073 |
Added platform-nullos.cc to serve as the basis for new platform |
| 6074 |
implementations. |
| 6075 |
|
| 6076 |
|
| 6077 |
2008-07-30: Version 0.2.0 |
| 6078 |
|
| 6079 |
Changed all text files to have native svn:eol-style. |
| 6080 |
|
| 6081 |
Added a few samples and support for building them. The samples |
| 6082 |
include a simple shell that can be used to benchmark and test V8. |
| 6083 |
|
| 6084 |
Changed V8::GetVersion to return the version as a string. |
| 6085 |
|
| 6086 |
Added source for lazily loaded scripts to snapshots and made |
| 6087 |
serialization non-destructive. |
| 6088 |
|
| 6089 |
Improved ARM support by fixing the write barrier code to use |
| 6090 |
aligned loads and stores and by removing premature locals |
| 6091 |
optimization that relied on broken support for callee-saved |
| 6092 |
registers (removed). |
| 6093 |
|
| 6094 |
Refactored the code for marking live objects during garbage |
| 6095 |
collection and the code for allocating objects in paged |
| 6096 |
spaces. Introduced an abstraction for the map word of a heap- |
| 6097 |
allocated object and changed the memory allocator to allocate |
| 6098 |
executable memory only for spaces that may contain code objects. |
| 6099 |
|
| 6100 |
Moved StringBuilder to utils.h and ScopedLock to platform.h, where |
| 6101 |
they can be used by debugging and logging modules. Added |
| 6102 |
thread-safe message queues for dealing with debugger events. |
| 6103 |
|
| 6104 |
Fixed the source code reported by toString for certain builtin |
| 6105 |
empty functions and made sure that the prototype property of a |
| 6106 |
function is enumerable. |
| 6107 |
|
| 6108 |
Improved performance of converting values to condition flags in |
| 6109 |
generated code. |
| 6110 |
|
| 6111 |
Merged disassembler-{arch} files.
|
| 6112 |
|
| 6113 |
|
| 6114 |
2008-07-28: Version 0.1.4 |
| 6115 |
|
| 6116 |
Added support for storing JavaScript stack traces in a stack |
| 6117 |
allocated buffer to make it visible in shallow core dumps. |
| 6118 |
Controlled by the --preallocate-message-memory flag which is |
| 6119 |
disabled by default. |
| 6120 |
|
| 6121 |
|
| 6122 |
2008-07-25: Version 0.1.3 |
| 6123 |
|
| 6124 |
Fixed bug in JSObject::GetPropertyAttributePostInterceptor where |
| 6125 |
map transitions would count as properties. |
| 6126 |
|
| 6127 |
Allowed aliased eval invocations by treating them as evals in the |
| 6128 |
global context. This may change in the future. |
| 6129 |
|
| 6130 |
Added support for accessing the last entered context through the |
| 6131 |
API and renamed Context::Current to Context::GetCurrent and |
| 6132 |
Context::GetSecurityContext to Context::GetCurrentSecurityContext. |
| 6133 |
|
| 6134 |
Fixed bug in the debugger that would cause the debugger scripts to |
| 6135 |
be recursively loaded and changed all disabling of interrupts to |
| 6136 |
be block-structured. |
| 6137 |
|
| 6138 |
Made snapshot data read-only to allow it to be more easily shared |
| 6139 |
across multiple users of V8 when linked as a shared library. |
| 6140 |
|
| 6141 |
|
| 6142 |
2008-07-16: Version 0.1.2 |
| 6143 |
|
| 6144 |
Fixed building on Mac OS X by recognizing i386 and friends as |
| 6145 |
IA-32 platforms. |
| 6146 |
|
| 6147 |
Added propagation of stack overflow exceptions that occur while |
| 6148 |
compiling nested functions. |
| 6149 |
|
| 6150 |
Improved debugger with support for recursive break points and |
| 6151 |
handling of exceptions that occur in the debugger JavaScript code. |
| 6152 |
|
| 6153 |
Renamed GetInternal to GetInternalField and SetInternal to |
| 6154 |
SetInternalField in the API and moved InternalFieldCount and |
| 6155 |
SetInternalFieldCount from FunctionTemplate to ObjectTemplate. |
| 6156 |
|
| 6157 |
|
| 6158 |
2008-07-09: Version 0.1.1 |
| 6159 |
|
| 6160 |
Fixed bug in stack overflow check code for IA-32 targets where a |
| 6161 |
non-tagged value in register eax was pushed to the stack. |
| 6162 |
|
| 6163 |
Fixed potential quadratic behavior when converting strings to |
| 6164 |
numbers. |
| 6165 |
|
| 6166 |
Fixed bug where the return value from Object::SetProperty could |
| 6167 |
end up being the property holder instead of the written value. |
| 6168 |
|
| 6169 |
Improved debugger support by allowing nested break points and by |
| 6170 |
dealing with stack-overflows when compiling functions before |
| 6171 |
setting break points in them. |
| 6172 |
|
| 6173 |
|
| 6174 |
2008-07-03: Version 0.1.0 |
| 6175 |
|
| 6176 |
Initial export. |
