Release notes
Version 2.0.0
(stable)
|
Backward-incompatible changes -----------------------------
- normal script execution shares its context with modules now (like on Node.js) - expose a "global" symbol that references the global scope (like on Node.js) - modules may return arbitrary values (not just objects; now like on Node.js) - pick up exports from "module.exports" also (like on Node.js) - handle exceptions thrown in module loader/normaliser like in other PHP scopes called from JS (i.e. by default terminate execution, optionally propagate to JS side)
V8Js' modules vastly behave like Node.js modules now \o/
- php.ini option v8js.compat_php_exceptions has been removed
Deprecations ------------ - V8Js::registerExtension and V8Js::getExtensions are now deprecated, use snapshots instead - likewise passing $extensions to V8Js::__construct - V8Js::getPendingException and and V8Js::clearPendingException are deprecated, use try/catch - likewise passing $report_uncaught_exceptions !== true to V8Js::__construct
Improvements ------------ - add documentation on heap snapshots
Bugfixes --------
- fix build on Windows with VS2017 (thanks @Jan-E) - fix enumeration of methods on V8 6.3 |
