Without eval it would be necessary to have * a test file excedding 64K which is not that polite for CVS and then a * special treatment for the compiled mode in Rhino should be added. * * * > * > If so, is it important to use the concat() method in the assignment, as * > you have done: |eval("str='".concat(long_str, "';"))|, or can we simply * > do |eval("str = long_str;")| ? * * The concat is a replacement for eval("str='"+long_str+"';"), but as * long_str is huge, this leads to constructing first a new string via * "str='"+long_str and then another one via ("str='"+long_str) + "';" * which takes time under JDK 1.1 on a something like StrongArm 200MHz. * Calling concat makes less copies, that is why it is used in the * duplicate function and this is faster then doing recursion like in the * test case to test that 64K different string literals can be handled. * */ //----------------------------------------------------------------------------- var UBound = 0; var BUGNUMBER = 179068; var summary = 'Test that interpreter can handle string literals exceeding 64K'; var status = ''; var statusitems = []; var actual = ''; var actualvalues = []; var expect= ''; var expectedvalues = []; var LONG_STR_SEED = "0123456789"; var N = 20 * 1024; var str = ""; // Generate 200K long string and assign it to |str| via eval() var long_str = duplicate(LONG_STR_SEED, N); eval("str='".concat(long_str, "';")); status = inSection(1); actual = str.length == LONG_STR_SEED.length * N expect = true; addThis(); //----------------------------------------------------------------------------- test(); //----------------------------------------------------------------------------- function duplicate(str, count) { var tmp = new Array(count); while (count != 0) tmp[--count] = str; return String.prototype.concat.apply("", tmp); } function addThis() { statusitems[UBound] = status; actualvalues[UBound] = actual; expectedvalues[UBound] = expect; UBound++; } function test() { printBugNumber(BUGNUMBER); printStatus(summary); for (var i=0; i
