This also adds some validation to ensure the correct order of JS_Init,
JS_NewRuntime, JS_DestroyRuntime and JS_ShutDown calls.

Using references matches the C++ coding style better and should improve
performance a bit in theory. It avoids 2 copies of T in case of the
functions registered with RegisterFunction (mainy used in the GUI). It
should also avoid one or two copies in case of
DEFINE_INTERFACE_METHOD_X, which is used in the simulation, but I
haven't bothered to count it there exactly.
It is now predefined which types have to be passed by const reference
and which are passed by value. Note that references can't be used as
out-parameters (to return multiple values to JS). This hasn't worked
before either and probably never will.
This was SVN commit r17696.
JS::Handle<T>::repoint gets removed with SpiderMonkey 38, so the
existing solution has to be replaced. The new approach should also be a
bit clearer. Named Return Value Optimization (NRVO) should avoid a
superfluous temporary for the return value in the generic template
function implementation of AssignOrFromJSVal.

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!

First, do a ray intersection test with the bounding-sphere for all
entities on the map and then check the more detailed selection shape for
the remaining candidates. Do checks that require component lookups after
the ray intersection tests because these are relatively expensive.
The old method for figuring out which entities are below the mouse
cursor was incorrect because it does a 2D check to filter out the first
candidates which can lead to incorrect results with lower camera angles
and high buildings or buildings with a large footprint. Such problems
were avoided with quite a large radius for this 2D test and resulted in
a large number of candiate entities after this first test (200-500).
Also rename PickEntitiesAtPoint to PickEntityAtPoint and make it return
only one (the closest) match.
I've tested performance with the tracelogger by starting a map and then
moving the mouse in circles for one minute. The results were relatively
stable. I've compared the total time percentage of input.js:836, which
spends nearly all of the time in PickEntityAtPoint.
Ardennes Forest - Normal size: Original: 41.46% Patched: 31.6%
Ardennes Forest - Giant size: Original: 40.59% Patched: 51.55%
As we see, it's faster on normal map sizes but slower on giant maps with
a lot of entities.
This approach can be further improved with some kind of spatial
subdivision for the culling (like an octree), which would help the unit
renderer too. This way it should be possible to make it faster (and
still correct) on all map sizes and with a large total numbers of
entities.
This was SVN commit r16098.
On my ESR31 branch, I've made two measurements with different replays
(both around 15000 turns).
In the first, I got around 3% performance improvement and in the second
about 7.5%. It mainly depends on how often aura changes related to the
female citizen aura happen.
This was SVN commit r16055.
The tracelogger has shown one of the functions as 4.9% and one as 2.2%
before the patch. After the patch, both functions were below 0.5%. 100%
is the time for all JS code being executed during a non-visual replay,
including GC, overhead for the tracelogger and JIT code compiling.
This was SVN commit r16036.
The runtime is becoming more and more important in the JSAPI. As a
result, we also have more functionality on the runtime level and having
the whole ScriptRuntime class hidden in ScriptInterface.cpp doesn't make
sense anymore. ScriptInterface.cpp also has become quite a large file
and pulling out the runtime part makes it a bit smaller.
Refs #2462
This was SVN commit r15961.
It seems like there is a memory leak if we haven't finished with the
marking phase of an incremental GC and SpiderMonkey has to trigger a
full GC because it runs out of memory. With this patch we stop trying to
make incremental GCs if we are above 1/2 of the runtime size and do Full
GCs instead. This should make such low memory conditions even less
likely than they were already after the previous patch. Also reduce the
maximum VFS cache size to 400 MB.
Refs #2808
This was SVN commit r15831.
The main problem was that GC was only called from the simulation before
this patch. This means when you were waiting in the multiplayer lobby or
just had the GUI open, it only called GC when getting close to the JS
runtime size limit (I assume). Another problem was the Net Server
runtime which didn't GC either. Here the runtime size limit is 16 MB
though, so it's not too terrible. These issues have both been addressed
and GC has been given a bit more time per incremental slice to make sure
it gets done in time. It's still far from perfect, but there are too
many changes in SpiderMonkey related to GC, so I don't want to spend too
much time on this yet.

Copying a ScriptInterface is not allowed. The destructor destroys the
JSContext and if there's a copy around that still uses it, that causes
crashes which can be quite hard to debug. This change prevents copying
by of ScriptInterface objects by making the copy constructor private,
which will reveal such errors at compile time.
This was SVN commit r15625.
The ScriptInterface pointer can be NULL there, so using it without
checking is not safe.
This fixes the problem by continuing with the exact stack rooting
changes, which makes the temporary solution unnecessary.

Changes CallFunction and CallFunctionVoid to use a HandleValue as object

* CGameLoader created a new JS::Value when assigning to m_Metadata.
This means it didn't actually update metadata in SavedGames::Load. The
new approach solves this problem and should work well if
CScriptValRooted gets replaced in the future.
* The cloning in ScriptFunctions.cpp was required. Removing it caused
compartment mismatches.
* Now CGameLoader loads the metadata unconditinally because we didn't
actually use the option to not load load it.

* Allows us to avoid the implementation of ToJSVal specializations for
JS::Value and JS::HandleValue. Such conversions should only happen if
there's no way around it and if you are aware of it.
* Adds test to make sure that all potentially required specializations
with custom implementations are instantiated. This should help prevent
introducing bugs in temporarily unused code.

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.

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.

This is the new way for working with arguments in JSNative functions.

deprecated and will probably be removed in future versions of
SpiderMonkey.
CallArgs also takes care of proper rooting and you can get the values as
Handles or MutableHandles. The interface changes a little bit for ESR
31, but commiting this now still makes it easier and the changes shout
be straigtforward (search and replace more or less).

I know that I had to use a workarounnd for contexts to avoid destroying
the context that was created first. I also had in mind that in newer

kind of issues.
Based on this experience I assumed runtimes could have a similar problem
and this patch indeed fixes the issues.
Unfortunately the correct usage of JSRuntimes in that regard is not
documented.

Fixes random crashes on Windows due to differences of STL types on the
binary level between different static libraries.
The differences are caused by the definition of _HAS_ITERATOR_DEBUGGING
and _SECURE_SCL in lib/precompiled.h.
All our engine static libs use precompiled headers but we didn't use
them for tinygettext because they aren't needed (except for these two
defines).
I've decided to add precompiled headers to tinygettext too instead of
just copying these defines. That should cause less headaches in the
future.

This problems occurs with the new SpiderMonkey in debug mode, but it's

When no free territory was left on the map, the AI tried to place a CC
every 10th AI turn.
That's about all 10 seconds and it freezed the game for about a second.
Now when you played against 4 players it freezed aobut 4 seconds every
10 seconds, which is very bad.
I wanted to solve this properly but realized that I'd have to change a
lot in the terrain analysis code that will probably be replaced anyway
when we have a new pathfinder with a proper interface.
Also removes an unused variable (creating a territory map and not using
it can't be good for performance either).
