Editor's Note

Draft Note: @@customMatcher is also part of the Pattern Matching proposal.

2 Syntax-Directed Operations

2.1 Scope Analysis

2.1.1 Static Semantics: BoundNames

The syntax-directed operation BoundNames takes no arguments and returns a List of Strings.

Note

"*default*" is used within this specification as a synthetic name for a module's default export when it does not have another name. An entry in the module's [[Environment]] is created with that name and holds the corresponding value, and resolving the export named "default" by calling ResolveExport ( exportName [ , resolveSet ] ) for the module will return a ResolvedBinding Record whose [[BindingName]] is "*default*", which will then resolve in the module's [[Environment]] to the above-mentioned value. This is done only for ease of specification, so that anonymous default exports can be resolved like any other export. This "*default*" string is never accessible to ECMAScript code or to the module linking algorithm.

It is defined piecewise over the following productions:

2.2 Miscellaneous

2.2.1 Runtime Semantics: BindingInitialization

The syntax-directed operation BindingInitialization takes arguments value (an ECMAScript language value) and environment (an Environment Record or undefined) and returns either a normal completion containing unused or an abrupt completion.

Note

undefined is passed for environment to indicate that a PutValue operation should be used to assign the initialization value. This is the case for var statements and formal parameter lists of some non-strict functions (See 10.2.11). In those cases a lexical binding is hoisted and preinitialized prior to evaluation of its initializer.

It is defined piecewise over the following productions:

BindingIdentifier : Identifier
  1. Let name be StringValue of Identifier.
  2. Return ? InitializeBoundName(name, value, environment).
 BindingIdentifier : yield
  1. Return ? InitializeBoundName("yield", value, environment).
 BindingIdentifier : await
  1. Return ? InitializeBoundName("await", value, environment).
 BindingPattern : ObjectBindingPattern
  1. Perform ? RequireObjectCoercible(value).
  2. Return ? BindingInitialization of ObjectBindingPattern with arguments value and environment.
 BindingPattern : ArrayBindingPattern
  1. Let iteratorRecord be ? GetIterator(value, sync).
  2. Let result be Completion(IteratorBindingInitialization of ArrayBindingPattern with arguments iteratorRecord and environment).
  3. If iteratorRecord.[[Done]] is false, return ? IteratorClose(iteratorRecord, result).
  4. Return ? result.
 ExtractorBindingPattern : ExtractorMemberExpression ( Elisionopt BindingRestElementopt ) ExtractorMemberExpression ( BindingElementList ) ExtractorMemberExpression ( BindingElementList , Elisionopt BindingRestElementopt )
  1. Let expr be the LeftHandSideExpression that is covered by ExtractorMemberExpression.
  2. Let ref be ? Evaluation of expr.
  3. Let extractor be ? GetValue(ref).
  4. If ref is a Reference Record and IsPropertyReference(ref) is true, let receiver be GetThisValue(ref).
  5. Else, let receiver be null.
  6. Let iteratorRecord be ? InvokeCustomMatcherOrThrow(extractor, value, receiver).
  7. Let result be ? IteratorBindingInitialization of this ExtractorBindingPattern with arguments iteratorRecord and environment.
  8. If iteratorRecord.[[Done]] is false, return ? IteratorClose(iteratorRecord, result).
  9. Return ? result.
 Editor's Note

Draft Note: receiver is part of the Pattern Matching proposal but does not have consensus in the Pattern Matching champion group yet.

 ObjectBindingPattern : { }
  1. Return unused.
 ObjectBindingPattern : { BindingPropertyList } { BindingPropertyList , }
  1. Perform ? PropertyBindingInitialization of BindingPropertyList with arguments value and environment.
  2. Return unused.
 ObjectBindingPattern : { BindingRestProperty }
  1. Let excludedNames be a new empty List.
  2. Return ? RestBindingInitialization of BindingRestProperty with arguments value, environment, and excludedNames.
 ObjectBindingPattern : { BindingPropertyList , BindingRestProperty }
  1. Let excludedNames be ? PropertyBindingInitialization of BindingPropertyList with arguments value and environment.
  2. Return ? RestBindingInitialization of BindingRestProperty with arguments value, environment, and excludedNames.

2.2.1.1 InvokeCustomMatcherOrThrow ( matcher, subject, receiver )

The abstract operation InvokeCustomMatcherOrThrow takes arguments matcher (an ECMAScript language value), subject (an ECMAScript language value), and receiver (an ECMAScript language value) and returns either a normal completion containing an Object, or a throw completion. It performs the following steps when called:

  1. If matcher is not an Object, throw a TypeError exception.
  2. Let f be ? GetMethod(matcher, @@customMatcher).
  3. If f is undefined, throw a TypeError exception.
  4. Let result be ? Call(f, matcher, « subject, "list", receiver »).
  5. If result is not an Object, throw a TypeError exception.
  6. Let iteratorRecord be ? GetIterator(result, sync).
  7. Return iteratorRecord.
 Editor's Note

Draft Note: The InvokeCustomMatcherOrThrow abstract operation is derived from InvokeCustomMatcher in the Pattern Matching proposal.

 Editor's Note

Draft Note: The value "list" is related to two different modes ("boolean" and "list") supported by custom matchers in the Pattern Matching proposal and is provided here to satisfy cross-cutting concerns between the two proposals.

 Editor's Note

Draft Note: The receiver parameter is not a consensus in the Pattern Matching champion group yet. This design is to keep the this value when calling the custom matchers. Not everyone in the champion group agrees we need to keep the this value.

 Editor's Note

Draft Note: This proposal currently uses iterators for destructuring, but may choose to use Array objects explicitly in the future due to performance concerns related to iterators.

2.2.2 Runtime Semantics: IteratorBindingInitialization

The syntax-directed operation IteratorBindingInitialization takes arguments iteratorRecord (an Iterator Record) and environment (an Environment Record or undefined) and returns either a normal completion containing unused or an abrupt completion.

Note

When undefined is passed for environment it indicates that a PutValue operation should be used to assign the initialization value. This is the case for formal parameter lists of non-strict functions. In that case the formal parameter bindings are preinitialized in order to deal with the possibility of multiple parameters with the same name.

Supplemental Syntax

When processing an instance of the production
CallExpression : CoverCallExpressionAndAsyncArrowHead CallExpression : CoverCallExpressionAndAsyncArrowHeadAndExtractor
the interpretation of CoverCallExpressionAndAsyncArrowHeadCoverCallExpressionAndAsyncArrowHeadAndExtractor is refined using the following grammar:

CallMemberExpression[Yield, Await] : MemberExpression[?Yield, ?Await] Arguments[?Yield, ?Await]

  4. Let ref be ? Evaluation of memberExpr.
  5. Let func be ? GetValue(ref).
  6. If ref is a Reference Record, IsPropertyReference(ref) is false, and ref.[[ReferencedName]] is "eval", then
    1. If SameValue(func, %eval%) is true, then
      1. Let argList be ? ArgumentListEvaluation of arguments.
      2. If argList has no elements, return undefined.

 Note

When this expression occurs within strict mode code, it is a runtime error if lref in step 1.d, 2, 2, 2, 2 is an unresolvable reference. If it is, a ReferenceError exception is thrown. Additionally, it is a runtime error if the lref in step 8, 7, 7, 6 is a reference to a data property with the attribute value { [[Writable]]: false }, to an accessor property with the attribute value { [[Set]]: undefined }, or to a non-existent property of an object for which the IsExtensible predicate returns the value false. In these cases a TypeError exception is thrown.

In certain circumstances when processing an instance of the production

3.2.3.3 Runtime Semantics: IteratorDestructuringAssignmentEvaluation

    2. If next is not done, then
      1. Perform ! CreateDataPropertyOrThrow(A, ! ToString(𝔽(n)), next).
      2. Set n to n + 1.
  5. If DestructuringAssignmentTarget is neither an ObjectLiteral nor, an ArrayLiteral, nor a CoverCallExpressionAndAsyncArrowHeadAndExtractor, then
