   1 lol
   2 unicode identifier support (native and \u)
   3 support unions (right now 0-1 fields parsed as struct)
   4 look into what String is, and whether to bridge it
   5 think about bridging NSNumber with Number prototype
   6 some JS callbacks don't use exception pointers at all...
   7 a newline needs to not be allowed after a unary *
   8 finish implementing default xml namespace statement
   9 encode newlines in history for later replay (psql uses ^A)
  10
  11 consider replacing regex literals with constructors
  12   https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=98409
  13 numerification needs to use specific precision values
  14   https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5856
  15 consider a mode where unicode string content is saved
  16   https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=274152
  17
  18 NSDictionaries that have NSNumber keys don't getProperty
  19 errors in another process aren't displayed; to fix this, parse errors should get converted to exceptions and thrown
  20 CYPoolTry/Catch now carefully save the exception after it /no longer needs the exception/... uhh... wtf?
  21 throw CYJSError should probably be replaced with CYThrow() across the board
  22 figure out what to do about global context refs: I really really want to retain the bastards
  23 the concept of NULL pooling is entirely incorrect and sad... bad... evil... need to work on this... really
  24 NSArray's .toString() and .toLocaleString() fail hard, as Array.prototype.to*String are Array-specific
  25 applyOnMainThread, when done at console, loops the cyonifier
  26 special work needs to be done to correctly handle the "arguments" symbol: Declare("arguments", ...Special)
  27 at the Program level I seem to be eating away all of the var statements
  28 function pointers are ?; note that blocks are currently block_P = '?'
  29 I should probably attempt to use the auto_ flag somehow to not do contexts_ push when compiling
  30 Object_callAsFunction_toCYON should be implemented
  31
  32 [NSString stringWithString:""] crashes, on linux, not on mac
  33 GS #defines should be _finline
  34
  35 replace procmod g+s with gdb's macosx_get_task_for_pid_rights
  36 non-local return prologue is not being Replace()d: multipass compiler!
  37 interpretation of documentation comments should be compiler-only and off by default
  38 don't ever generate $ CYWith, in particular for CYLet... use CYFunctionExpression
  39
  40 semi-colon insertion warnings should mark after the previous token, not on the current one: makes a /lot/ more sense
  41 new for pools should take a reference, not a pointer
  42
  43 output errors during Trampoline to some kind of log file
  44
  45 there is a reinterpret_cast<> that I replaced with an old-style cast on the output of dladdr
  46
  47 why do I never deallocate ffi closures?
  48
  49 make a reference holder for namearrays
  50 rename names to accumulator when it is a name accumulator, and retake names for subset
  51 I believe calls to mutableCopy will leak memory
  52 consider pointerTo instead of toPointer
  53 store the last exception in a variable
  54 should WebUndefined be @undefined?
  55
  56 if something is a function, it should be output differently
  57 evaluate usages of CYTry in ObjectiveC/Library for CYObjectiveTry
  58 verify name targets of "incorrect number of arguments to"
  59 maybe support __objc_{yes,no} intrinisic primitives
  60
  61 support new objective-c subscript notation:
  62   id key = ...;
  63   id value = object[key];
  64   -> id value = [object objectForKeyedSubscript:key];
  65   object[key] = newValue;
  66   -> [object setObject:newValue forKeyedSubscript:key];
  67 and:
  68   NSUInteger idx = ...;
  69   id value = object[idx];
  70   -> id value = [object objectAtIndexedSubscript:idx];
  71   object[idx] = newValue;
  72   -> [object setObject:newValue atIndexedSubscript:idx];
  73
  74 use JSObjectMakeError to build exception objects
  75 replace cy$getProperty's return value with JSValueRef
  76 flatten compound expressions made up of compound expressions
  77
  78 cy# {{5,6};6;{7;{8;5}}}
  79 got: {5,6;6;{7;8,5}}
  80 wanted: 5,6,6,7,8,5
  81
  82 cy# for each (var i = 9 in [1, 2]) system.print(i);
  83 got: {i=9;(function(e,t){for(t in e){i=e[t];system.print(i)}})([1,2])}
  84 wanted: i=9,function(e,t){for(t in e)i=e[t],system.print(i)}([1,2])
  85
  86 with is being translated in a manner that doesn't handle variables
  87 cy# function b() { for each (var t in a) {} }
  88 function b(){var e,t,n;with({t:a,n:undefined})for(n in t)e=t[n]}
  89
  90 I feel like [[self toJSON] toCYON] might should be one or the other
  91
  92 the non-local transform used for let is ludicrous... :( :(
  93
  94 cy# function q(e) { }
  95 function q(e){var e}
  96
  97 CYCompound needs to be able to replace itself away without causing multiple Replace
  98 fat arrows are currently output with too much verbosity
  99
 100 CYJSString <- wrap JavaScript strings and provide them back to Objective-C
 101 ruby blocks need to return their last thing
 102 Objective-C strings might should be cyonified using double-quotes
 103
 104 apparently you can have random escape sequences in strings, like \!
 105 cycript -p with processes that have spaces doesn't work
 106 CYDriver uses std::istream, but it should use std::streambuf
 107 the mechanism I used to autodetect readline is horrible: use autoconf
