Open Issues

Development Updates

Build System

See the Tamarin auto-build bug for status on this work item.

ActionMonkey

Jason Orendorff:

Awaiting review of his mmgc patch for handling interior pointers. This patch was of concern to Tom Reilly for performance reasons, but Jason says SpiderMonkey does exact GC so the memory loss is minimized. Also, Flash Player and SM will likely have different performance concerns (memory vs. speed) so this feature will be conditionally included.

A multi-threaded mmgc patch will be available later this week.

ScreamingMonkey

Mark Hammond: Each script has its own namespace. Next up is stepping back to analyze current work and document a plan for the next phase of work.


IronMonkey

No updates this week.


Self-hosting Compiler

No updates to report this week.
