|
| 10 |
CHANGELOG |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
This is a list of all changes to OSSP js. |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
Changes between 1.6.20060820 and 1.6.20070208 (2006-08-20 to 2007-02-08) |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
o Upgrade build environment to GNU autoconf 2.61 |
| 17 |
[Ralf S. Engelschall <rse@engelschall.com>] |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
o Added jspack, an adaption of Dean Edwards JavaScript packer |
| 20 |
<http://dean.edwards.name/packer/>, version 2.0.2, for use as a |
| 21 |
stand-alone Unix tool under the CLI of the OSSP js JavaScript |
| 22 |
engine. |
| 23 |
[Ralf S. Engelschall <rse@engelschall.com>] |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
o Upgrade to JavaScript 1.6 upstream sources as of 2007-02-08. |
| 26 |
[Ralf S. Engelschall <rse@engelschall.com>] |
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
o Upgrade to JavaScript 1.6 upstream sources as of 2007-01-02. |
| 29 |
[Ralf S. Engelschall <rse@engelschall.com>] |
| 30 |
|
| 31 |
o Upgrade to JavaScript 1.6 upstream sources as of 2006-09-16. |
| 32 |
[Ralf S. Engelschall <rse@engelschall.com>] |
| 33 |
|
| 34 |
Changes between 1.6.20060803 and 1.6.20060820 (2006-08-03 to 2006-08-20) |
| 35 |
|
| 36 |
o Add support for UTF-8 C strings in the API and internally by |
| 37 |
adding a --with-utf8 build-time options which builds the code |
| 38 |
with JS_C_STRINGS_ARE_UTF8. |
| 39 |
[Ralf S. Engelschall <rse@engelschall.com>] |
| 40 |
|
| 41 |
o Upgrade to upstream sources as of 2006-08-20. |
| 42 |
[Ralf S. Engelschall <rse@engelschall.com>] |
| 43 |
|
| 44 |
Changes between 1.6.20060731 and 1.6.20060803 (2006-07-31 to 2006-08-03) |
| 45 |
|
| 46 |
o Add optional Dynamic Shared Object (DSO) support (see src/jsdso.[ch]). |
| 47 |
This comes in two flavors: |
| 48 |
|
| 49 |
1. Provide two public C API functions... |
| 50 |
JSBool JS_DSOLoad (JSContext *cx, int *id, const char *filename); |
| 51 |
JSBool JS_DSOUnload (JSContext *cx, int id); |
| 52 |
...as an ultra-thin wrapper around the POSIX dlopen(3) API. It |
| 53 |
especially mimics the BSD RTLD behaviour of calling pre-defined |
| 54 |
functions (mandatory "js_DSO_load" and optional "js_DSO_unload") |
| 55 |
inside the DSO after/before the dlopen/dlclose calls. This |
| 56 |
allows the DSOs to perform their init/shutdown actions. |
| 57 |
|
| 58 |
2. Provide a small JavaScript global object "DSO" which binds |
| 59 |
the two public DSO C API functions into the JavaScript language |
| 60 |
as "DSO.load" and "DSO.unload". The "DSO" object can be created |
| 61 |
by the friend C API function js_InitDSOClass(). This function is |
| 62 |
used by the command-linne interface "js" by default. |
| 63 |
|
| 64 |
As a result the OSSP Mozilla JavaScript engine is now able to |
| 65 |
dynamically load C extensions similar to what other programming |
| 66 |
languages provide since a longer time. |
| 67 |
[Ralf S. Engelschall <rse@engelschall.com>] |
| 68 |
|
| 69 |
o Be more clean and replace weak "#if JS_HAS_FILE_OBJECT" constructs |
| 70 |
with the stronger "#if defined(JS_HAS_FILE_OBJECT) && (JS_HAS_FILE_OBJECT - 0)" |
| 71 |
as the JS_HAS_FILE_OBJECT can be not defined at all (in contrast to |
| 72 |
other JS_HAS_XXXX defines which are all listed in src/jsconfig.h) |
| 73 |
[Ralf S. Engelschall <rse@engelschall.com>] |
| 74 |
|
| 75 |
o Fix a bunch of compiler warnings. |
| 76 |
[Ralf S. Engelschall <rse@engelschall.com>] |
| 77 |
|
| 78 |
o Change from -O2 to -O0 and without -Wshadow under --enable-debug. |
| 79 |
[Ralf S. Engelschall <rse@engelschall.com>] |
| 80 |
|
| 81 |
Changes between 1.6.20060730 and 1.6.20060731 (2006-07-30 to 2006-07-31) |
| 82 |
|
| 83 |
o Fix "make distclean": src/perlconnect/Makefile.PL is always generated |
| 84 |
and hence has to be always deleted. |
| 85 |
[Ralf S. Engelschall <rse@engelschall.com>] |
| 86 |
|
| 87 |
o Fix "devtool dist" command: "make man" does not exist. |
| 88 |
[Ralf S. Engelschall <rse@engelschall.com>] |
| 89 |
|
| 90 |
o Fix "make install": the executable "js" was not installed via GNU |
| 91 |
libtool and this way under --enable-shared the wrapper script was |
| 92 |
installed only. |
| 93 |
[Alfred Reibenschuh <alfred.reibenschuh@it-austria.com>] |
| 94 |
|
| 95 |
o Add a src/perlconnect/MANIFEST file to make ExtUtils::MakeMaker more happy. |
| 96 |
[Ralf S. Engelschall <rse@engelschall.com>] |
| 97 |
|
| 98 |
o Fix "make install": js-config.1 was not installed. |
| 99 |
[Alfred Reibenschuh <alfred.reibenschuh@it-austria.com>] |
| 100 |
|
| 101 |
o Use Autoconf macros AC_CANONICAL_BUILD and AC_CANONICAL_HOST to |
| 102 |
make sure that the host identification is really available. |
| 103 |
[Alfred Reibenschuh <alfred.reibenschuh@it-austria.com>] |
| 104 |
|
| 105 |
o Upgrade to upstream sources as of 2006-07-31. |
| 106 |
[Ralf S. Engelschall <rse@engelschall.com>] |
| 107 |
|
| 108 |
Changes between 1.6.20060729 and 1.6.20060730 (2006-07-29 to 2006-07-30) |
| 109 |
|
| 110 |
o Add support for Windows CygWin and MinGW environments. |
| 111 |
[Ralf S. Engelschall <rse@engelschall.com>, |
| 112 |
Andrew Vajoczki <vajoczki@yahoo.com>] |
| 113 |
|
| 114 |
o Upgrade to upstream sources as of 2006-07-30. |
| 115 |
[Ralf S. Engelschall <rse@engelschall.com>] |
| 116 |
|
| 117 |
Changes between 1.6.20060724 and 1.6.20060729 (2006-07-24 to 2006-07-29) |
| 118 |
|
| 119 |
o Upgrade to upstream sources as of 2006-07-29. |
| 120 |
[Ralf S. Engelschall <rse@engelschall.com>] |
| 121 |
|
| 122 |
o Changed GNU libtool shared library versioning from 0:0 to 1:6. |
| 123 |
[Ralf S. Engelschall <rse@engelschall.com>, |
| 124 |
Alfred Reibenschuh <alfred.reibenschuh@it-austria.com>] |
| 125 |
|
| 126 |
o Increase portability by gracefully downgrading the stat(2) use of |
| 127 |
st_birthtime to st_birthtimensec or even st_ctime. |
| 128 |
[Ralf S. Engelschall <rse@engelschall.com>, |
| 129 |
Andrew Vajoczki <vajoczki@yahoo.com>] |
| 130 |
|
| 131 |
o Apply a few more upstream fixes to jsfile.c. |
| 132 |
[Ralf S. Engelschall <rse@engelschall.com>] |
| 133 |
|
| 134 |
Changes between 1.6.20060722 and 1.6.20060724 (2006-07-22 to 2006-07-24) |
| 135 |
|
| 136 |
o Apply multiple code cleanups and bugfixes. |
| 137 |
[Ralf S. Engelschall <rse@engelschall.com>] |
| 138 |
|
| 139 |
o Move definitions of XP_UNIX and EXPORT_JS_API back from jstypes.h |
| 140 |
to configure.ac (and this way the command-line) to not break the |
| 141 |
use of jstypes.h as a regular API header in JS based applications. |
| 142 |
[Ralf S. Engelschall <rse@engelschall.com>] |
| 143 |
|
| 144 |
o Consistently mark all OSSP bugfixes with a "/* BUGFIX */" tag on |
| 145 |
the "#ifdef OSSP" line. This way one can more easily see what |
| 146 |
are specific OSSP specific changes what should be taken over by |
| 147 |
upstream vendor. |
| 148 |
[Ralf S. Engelschall <rse@engelschall.com>] |
| 149 |
|
| 150 |
o Fix an incorrect argument type bug in jsfile.c related to a call to |
| 151 |
js_InflateString(). A "size_t *" has to be passed, not a "size_t". |
| 152 |
[Ralf S. Engelschall <rse@engelschall.com>] |
| 153 |
|
| 154 |
o Upgrade from (the Mozilla Firefox 1.5 pinned version) SpiderMonkey |
| 155 |
1.6.20060722 to the (SPIDERMONKEY_1_6_0_BRANCH based) 1.6.20060724 |
| 156 |
upstream version. |
| 157 |
[Ralf S. Engelschall <rse@engelschall.com>] |
| 158 |
|
| 159 |
o Added jslint (see http://www.jslint.com/) together with some |
| 160 |
home-brewn option parser. The result is installed as |
| 161 |
a stand-alone "jslint" program. |
| 162 |
[Ralf S. Engelschall <rse@engelschall.com>] |
| 163 |
|
| 164 |
o Install all src/js*.h headers during "make install" to allow |
| 165 |
applications to at least optionally poke around in the internals. |
| 166 |
This also allows an application to call js_InitFileClass() from |
| 167 |
<jsfile.h> without us having to really call this function in the |
| 168 |
standard API function JS_InitStandardClasses(). |
| 169 |
[Ralf S. Engelschall <rse@engelschall.com>] |
| 170 |
|
| 171 |
o Change the default of the --with-file/--without from --without-file |
| 172 |
to --with-file (enable the File object by default), but activate |
| 173 |
it only in the CLI (where it doesn't hurt and where it is actually |
| 174 |
really required to get something useful running there in practice) |
| 175 |
but explicitly _NOT_ in JS_InitStandardClasses() (as this is |
| 176 |
what would hurt the security in applications which assume that |
| 177 |
JS_InitStandardClasses() initialized only really the standard |
| 178 |
classes). |
| 179 |
[Ralf S. Engelschall <rse@engelschall.com>] |
| 180 |
|
| 181 |
Changes between *GENESIS* and 1.6.20060722 (2006-06-XX to 2006-07-22) |
| 182 |
|
| 183 |
o Initial OSSP js distribution of Mozilla JavaScript 1.6 as of 2006-07-22. |
