This upgrade also introduces exact stack rooting (see to the wiki:
JSRootingGuide) and fixes problems with moving GC. This allows us to
enable generational garbage collection (GGC).
Measurements a few months ago have shown a performance improvement of a
non-visual replay of around 13.5%. This probably varies quite a bit, but
it should be somewhere between 5-20%. Memory usage has also been
improved. Check the forum thread for details.
Thanks to everyone from the team who helped with this directly or
indirectly (review, finding and fixing issues, the required C++11
upgrade, the new autobuilder etc.)! Also thanks to the SpiderMonkey
developers who helped on the #jsapi channel or elsewhere!

This was SVN commit r16214.
Everything is char* now, so we don't need to mess around with different
string types.
Done with:
ag -ls 'LOG(MESSAGE|MESSAGERENDER|WARNING|ERROR)' source | xargs perl
-pi -e'1 while
s/(LOG(MESSAGE|MESSAGERENDER|WARNING|ERROR).*)%[hl]s/$1%s/g'
This was SVN commit r16187.

-i 's/LOG\(MESSAGE\|MESSAGERENDER\|WARNING\|ERROR\)(L/LOG\1(/g'

I had to change a few other functions to take JS::MutableHandleValue
because JS::Stringify takes a JS::MutableHandleValue as input parameter.
That seems a bit strange because it should not change that value.
I assume it has historical reasons.
Refs #2415
Refs #2462
This was SVN commit r15605.
Changes CallFunction and CallFunctionVoid to use a HandleValue as object
parameter. Also changes some JS serialization/deserialization functions
to only support the JSAPI rooted types (drop support for CScriptVal and
CScriptValRooted there). Some other functions got changed too because
they were closely related.
Refs #2415
Refs #2462
This was SVN commit r15592.
Changes GetProperty, SetProperty and HasProperty and a few other
functions to take handles. The conversions to CScriptVal or
CScriptValRooted at some places should be removed in the future. I've
done that to avoid an even larger patch.
Refs #2415
Refs #2462
This was SVN commit r15568.
JS::MutableHandleValue is similar to JS::HandleValue, but the whole
JS::Value it points to can be replaced.
This change is needed for support of exact stack rooting and moving GC.
Contains a few other trivial API adjustments and style improvements too.

This was SVN commit r15534.
In v24 you called JS_InitClass and passed in a definition of JSNative
functions. Later you could call JS_NewObject with this class and the
object would get a prototype with the specified JSNative functions.
In ESR31 you now have to explicitly store the prototype object returned
by JS_InitClass and pass it as prototype argument to JS_NewObject to
achieve the same.
This change modifies our existing ScriptInterface implementation for
custom object types a bit and uses it at places where the JSAPI was used
directly before.
Refs #2462
This was SVN commit r15524.
JS::HandleValue is basically a wrapper around a JS::Value that is safe
for exact stack rooting and moving GC.
I've tried to keep this changeset rather small and isolated and
therefore create additional JS::Rooted<T> values at some places where
the function should eventually directly take a JS::Handle<T>.
The functions "CallFunction" and "CallFunctionVoid" put their arguments
inside a JS::AutoValueVector because this will be passed directly to
"CallFunction_" with ESR31.

I guess changes to the map loading sequence caused the TerrainChanged
message to be sent before the map was switched from square to circular
instead of after. The pathfinder didn't notice the switch, so it
continued treating the map as if it were square, allowing units to walk
into the permanent map-corner SOD and vanish, and allowing territories
to expand into the SOD.
Tell the pathfinder explicitly when the map shape changes, so it can
discard its cached data correctly.
This was SVN commit r15277.
Instead of each CCmpVisualActor rendering itself individually, collect
all the units in a single CCmpUnitRenderer. This avoids the overhead of
doing Interpolate/RenderSubmit calls every frame for every object in the
world. It also allows more efficient culling.
CCmpUnitRenderer knows the positions of each object at the start and end
of each turn, and computes the bounding sphere of the object along that
path. That allows quick culling without recomputing the precise
interpolated transform every frame. (In the future it could be improved
much more.)
Clarify and clean up the sending of PositionChanged messages, and add
new InterpolatedPositionChanged.
Remove the forceFloating parameter from GetInterpolatedTransform, since
it doesn't fit the new design. Replace it with a (non-synchronised) flag
in CCmpPosition.
Move construction progress from CCmpVisualActor to CCmpPosition, so that
it consistently affects all position/transform computation.

This was SVN commit r15265.
Deserialize SYSTEM_ENTITY before any other entities. This makes it safe
for Deserialize() methods to access system components (mirroring how
Init() can already access system components).
Add a Deserialized message, sent after all entities have been
deserialized, to help with some other sequencing problems.
This was SVN commit r15264.
This commit contains all the required changes to our source files and
build scripts (hopefully).
A next commit will remove the old stuff of SpiderMonkey 1.8.5.
Spcial thanks to:
- H4writer who helped a lot mainly with the performance issues we
had/have, but also with other problems or questions.
- Leper for the review.
- Historic_bruno for implementing the build scripts on Mac OS X and
testing on the Mac.
- The people from the #jsapi channel and from
mozilla.dev.tech.js-engine who answered a lot of questions and helped
solving problems.

I've tested the performance on Combat Demo (Huge) again with the code
from #2394.
It's very close but probably a little bit lower (hard to tell because
it's so close).

Fix a few style issues and a bug with the gatherer count.
Still need to fix the entity.js file to handle properly some things as
this uses raw templates values.

properly.

Cast to smaller integer types explicitly.
Generally avoid platform-dependent types (size_t) in simulation code.
Use float versions of math.h functions, not double.
This was SVN commit r10017.
the old debug_assert always ran and tested the expression, which slows
down release builds. wrapping them in #ifndef NDEBUG is clumsy. the new
ASSERT behaves like assert and ENSURE like the old debug_assert. Let's
change any time-critical but not-super-important ENSURE to ASSERT to
speed up release builds. (already done in bits.h and unique_range.h)
