This release includes implementations of a number of missing JavaScript language features,
including:

  • Improvement to the accuracy and reliability of the parser and its associated AST.
  • The Map, Set, WeakMap, and WeakSet classes.
  • More Array functions, including from, of, fill, keys, values, entries, and copyWithin.
  • Many more Math methods.
  • More Object functions, including seal and freeze.
  • Many other bug fixes, as shown below.

In general, Rhino's philosophy for new features and changes is to
follow the ECMAScript spec, but to use the "language version" on the Context class
when backward compatibility would be broken.

For example, the Array.prototype.concat function in older versions of Rhino would treat
any input value as "spreadable" if it has the same constructor as Array. ECMAScript now says
clearly that this should only happen if the "isConcatSpreadable" symbol is present. In
this release, the old behavior is disable when the language level is at least the
"ES6" level (Context.VERSION_ES6, or 200).

Developers working on new code will be happier if they set the language level to
CONTEXT.VERSION_ES6, or use the "-version 200" flag to the command line tool.

A future release will change the default language version of the command line tool.

This release contains contributions from 15 developers. Thanks for all your hard work!

  • avoid npe if no file window is available
  • improve the design for flexible subclassing
  • remove duplicated check
  • fix the isSymbol detection to no longer detect the prototype as symbol
  • we have many more 262 tests passing already - i think we have to use as many tests as possible to check our quality
  • and some more; now we are at 51093
  • Use as many test262 tests as possible to check our quality
  • implement missing Math functions
  • disable some slow tests
  • Support for arguments object as TypedArray constructor argument this is the same as #297 but includes a simple test.
  • fix issue 437
  • use the system line separator for code generation
  • remove work around for 437
  • fix #449 also and remove the work around from EqualObjectGraphs
  • add @OverRide and some more cleanup

  • avoid star imports across the codebase
  • fall back to the interpreter if the byte code generation fails
  • fix serialization for NativeMap, NativeSet, NativeWeakMap, and NativeWeakSet
  • scope is only undefined in strict mode; fix special null entries for maps
