Duktape 1.2 release notes ​

Release overview ​

This release adds debugger support, macro-based script timeout function, and performance optimizations. Debugger integration API calls have been added (duk_debugger_attach(), duk_debugger_detach(), and duk_debugger_cooperate()).

Upgrading from Duktape 1.1.x ​

No action (other than recompiling) should be needed to upgrade from Duktape v1.1.x.

There are bug fixes and other minor behavioral changes which may affect some applications, see RELEASES.rst for details.

Known issues ​

This release has the following known issues worth noting.

ECMAScript features ​

  • Non-compliant behavior for array indices near 2G or 4G elements.
  • RegExp parser is strict and won't accept some real world RegExps which are technically not compliant with ECMAScript E5/E5.1 specification.
  • Final mantissa bit rounding issues in the internal number-to-string conversion.
  • If a function contains a lot of constants (over 511 strings or non-integers), the compiler fails to compile a try-catch statement. The workaround is to place the try-catch in a separate function outside the problematic function.

Portability and platforms ​

  • On some older clang/llvm versions (e.g. Clang 3.3 on FreeBSD 10): when -m32 is used, Duktape will end up using the 8-byte packed value representation but clang will generate incorrect code for union assignment (see misc/clang_aliasing.c). The issue can be detected by defining DUK_OPT_SELF_TESTS. A workaround is to avoid packed types in this case by defining DUK_OPT_NO_PACKED_TVAL.
  • On some older clang/llvm versions (e.g. Clang 3.3 on FreeBSD 10): compilation may produce a warning "generic selections are a C11-specific feature". The warning should be harmless.
  • On some older clang/llvm versions (e.g. Clang 3.3 on FreeBSD 10): harmless compilation warning for "duk_repl_isinf" being unused.
  • On some GCC versions and compilation options you may get a warning "variable idx_func might be clobbered by longjmp or vfork [-Wclobbered]". This warning seems spurious and causes no known problems.
  • GCC -O4 may produce a warning "assuming signed overflow does not occur when assuming that (X - c) > X is always false" for some assertions. This warning seems spurious and causes no known problems.
  • GCC -pedantic without -std=c99 causes the unsigned long long type to be used by Duktape, and an associated warning about the type. This is harmless and most easily fixed by simply using -std=c99.

Raw issues from test runs ​

API tests ​

See testcase-known-issues.yaml:

test-to-number.c: fail; 15 diff lines; known issue: number parsing bug for strings containing NUL characters (e.g. '\u0000')

test-bi-date-tzoffset-brute-fi: fail; 12 diff lines; known issue: year 1970 deviates from expected, Duktape uses equiv. year for 1970 on purpose at the moment; requires special feature options: test case has been written for Finnish locale

test-bi-json-dec-types: fail; 21 diff lines; known issue: '\x' should be allowed by eval() but not by JSON.parse(), Duktape rejects '\x' in both
test-bi-json-enc-proplist-dups: fail; 8 diff lines; known issue: JSON.stringify() can be given a property list to serialize; duplicates should be eliminated but Duktape (and other engines) will happily serialize a property multiple times
test-bi-number-proto-toexponential: fail; 75 diff lines; known issue: corner case rounding errors in toExponential()
test-bi-number-proto-tostring: fail; 46 diff lines; known issue: expect strings to be checked, but probably Duktape rounding issues
test-bi-regexp-gh39: fail; 5 diff lines; known issue: requires leniency for non-standard regexps
test-bug-enum-shadow-nonenumerable: fail; 12 diff lines; known issue: corner case enumeration semantics, not sure what correct behavior is (test262 ch12/12.6/12.6.4/12.6.4-2)
test-bug-invalid-oct-as-dec: fail; 14 diff lines; known issue: V8/Rhino parse invalid octal constants as decimal values, Duktape doesn't at the moment
test-bug-json-parse-__proto__: fail; 18 diff lines; known issue: when ES6 __proto__ enabled, JSON.parse() parses '__proto__' property incorrectly when a specially crafted reviver is used
test-bug-numconv-1e23: fail; 10 diff lines; known issue: corner case in floating point parse rounding
test-bug-numconv-denorm-toprec: fail; 7 diff lines; known issue: in a denormal corner case toPrecision() can output a zero leading digit
test-bug-tonumber-u0000: fail; 7 diff lines; known issue: '\u0000' should ToNumber() coerce to NaN, but now coerces to zero like an empty string
test-bug-trycatch-many-constants: fail; 5 diff lines; known issue: out of regs for try-catch in functions with a lot of constants
test-conv-number-tostring-tonumber-roundtrip: fail; 5 diff lines; known issue: rounding corner cases
test-dev-bound-thread-start-func: fail; 13 diff lines; known issue: initial function of a new coroutine cannot be bound

test-regexp-empty-quantified: fail; 15 diff lines; known issue: a suitable empty quantified (e.g. '(x*)*') causes regexp parsing to terminate due to step limit
test-regexp-invalid-charclass: fail; 7 diff lines; known issue: some invalid character classes are accepted (e.g. '[\d-z]' and '[z-x]')
test-regexp-nonstandard-patternchar: fail; 6 diff lines; known issue: other engines allow an unescaped brace to appear literally (e.g. /{/), Duktape does not (which seems correct but is against real world behavior)
test-stmt-for-in-lhs: fail; 29 diff lines; known issue: for-in allows some invalid left-hand-side expressions which cause a runtime ReferenceError instead of a compile-time SyntaxError (e.g. 'for (a+b in [0,1]) {...}')

ch12/12.6/12.6.4/12.6.4-2 in non-strict mode   // diagnosed: enumeration corner case issue, see test-bug-enum-shadow-nonenumerable.js
ch15/15.10/15.10.2/15.10.2.5/S15.10.2.5_A1_T5 in non-strict mode   // diagnosed: Duktape bug, matching /(a*)b\1+/ against 'baaaac' causes first capture to match the empty string; the '\1+' part will then use the '+' quantifier over the empty string.  As there is no handling to empty quantified now, Duktape bails out with a RangeError.
