This allows us to remove the conditionals on implementations of `from_path` that need to call this function, as the function is now always guaranteed to be there, even if it's just a no-op/`Err` generator.
During the small period of time when a player is created but has no root movie, a temporary empty movie is installed with an assumed stage size and framerate of 550x400@12fps. This is Flash default for new projects, so it seemed appropriate. User ActionScript cannot see these values, and I'm not even sure JavaScript can, either.
Calling loadMovieNum with a variable parameter compiles into a
GetURL2 call with a `_level` window target parameter. Previously
this triggered Ruffle to try to navigate to the SWF. Now it
properly loads the SWF inside the current movie.
Holding a `Ref` on a garbage-collected object inherently extends any borrow locks on that object. Since ABC files are references already, taking a `Ref` to them only helps to skip the refcount update. This is less useful than expected: in most situations, using `abc_ref` causes double-borrow panics. The few methods that can use it are going to be fragile in the face of future refactors, so I'm nipping the problem in the bud now.
For good measure, most of the other methods in `value` for retrieving pool primitives now also use `TranslationUnit` instead of `AbcFile`. This is the result of a handful of cascading changes throughout the project, and itself caused a few more.
Interface methods are specifically not allowed to be called: as a result, they don't get a method body. Existing code assumed a 1:1 relationship between methods and bodies, which causes spurious errors.
This is inspired by Dinnerbone's similar PR on the AVM1 side, where the Action half of that VM's `Executable` was reduced from 128 bytes to 16 by shoving it in a `Gc`. This won't be as dramatic but should still save some memory.
In fact, it should save a *lot* of memory in bytecode execution, where thanks to the previous commit's rebase, we now need to clone the current method once *for each instruction executed*. That is terrible, but should stop now.
This also results in a far reduced role for `ReturnValue`, since I also took the liberty of removing most of it's use. Furthermore, I also made it apply equally to native and AVM2 code, which ensures all native implementations of methods don't double-borrow.
In AVM1, `ReturnValue` was actually removed entirely, because it's not needed. I attempted to do the same, but the fact that we're currently embedding `ScriptObjectData` in native objects means that we need it for virtual properties. Otherwise, virtual property implementations will see locked objects, which is bad.
While some code that references pool multinames has zero as a valid index, we cannot validate exactly what the zero index is for a given index. Hence, callers instantiating multinames must check for zero and substitute the correct zero-value interpretation for their given type. If zero is an invalid value, it should ideally throw a different error than what's provided here.
This commit breaks the build: we still need to tell `Avm2` how to turn ABC traits into our own internal `Trait<'gc>`, `Class<'gc>`, and `Method<'gc>` types. We also need something to track which traits have already been instantiated, because `callstatic` would otherwise reinstantiate the trait in a different scope. (In fact, I think it *does* do exactly that right now...)
The intention is to completely replace all usage of `Avm2XYZEntry` with `Class`, `Trait`, and `Method`. This will allow runtime-provided global class traits to coexist with those provided by user code.
Inspired by Dinnerbone's PR doing the exact same thing to AVM1.
On AVM2 we have a bit of a subtle issue: the base implementation of `set_property_local` and `init_property_local` *must* return `ReturnValue`s to avoid double-borrows. Each implementation of `TObject` must resolve them before returning.
This function has vague documentation about enabling locale-specific formatting in subclasses. As far as I can tell, none of the objects I implemented so far do anything different than `toString`, so I just have it use the same `TObject` property I set up for `toString`.
This was originally something *way* more evil: mixed inheritance between ES3 and ES4 classes. It didn't pan out due to fundamental limitations of the two object models. How the hell did Brendan Eich/Adobe/TC-39 expect ES4 classes to be adopted in already-existing codebases?!
We still reuse the `FunctionObject` machinery internally. If necessary, we may want to split this into a separate `ClassObject` if some internal `TObject` method needs replacing for classes.
In practice not many movies will care about this, because the `AS3` namespace is open by default. You could opt-out of that, and I suppose that was there for using existing ES3 code in AS3 projects. ES4 would have had a similar ES4 namespace, which "JavaScript 2.0" code would need to opt into. Of course, ES4/JS2 never happened, so we just have this weird historical quirk here.
The reason for this is that, in AVM2, `toString` and `valueOf` are not defined on the classes or prototypes of `Function` or `Class`. Instead, they use the `Object.prototype` versions of those functions. Ergo, string and primitive coercion are inherent object methods (the ones that get `[[DoubleSquareBrackets]]` in the ECMA standards). In Ruffle, our equivalent to `[[DoubleSquareBrackets]]` methods are methods on the `TObject` trait, so we're adding them there.
This mechanism will make implementing boxed value types (ala AVM1's `BoxedObject`) easier, too.
We also add some reasonable defaults for `ScriptObject` and `FunctionObject` which will appear on objects, functions, and classes.
Private names now return `false`, and we run any names through trait lookups. This also means any namespace resolution can fail now, in case we need to throw a `VerifyError`.
I have... significant reservations with the way object enumeration happens in AVM2. For comparison, AVM1 enumeration works like this: You enumerate the entire object at once, producing a list of property names, which are then pushed onto the stack after a sentinel value. This is a properly abstract way to handle property enumeration.
In AVM2, they completely replaced this with index-based enumeration. What this means is that you hand the object an index and it gives you back a name or value. There's also an instruction that will give you the next index in the object.
The only advantage I can think of is that it results in less stack manipulation if you want to bail out of iteration early. You just jump out of your loop and kill the registers you don't care about. The disadvantage is that it locks the object representation down pretty hard. They also screwed up the definition of `hasnext`, and thus the VM is stuck enumerating properties from 1. This is because `hasnext` and `hasnext2` increment the index value before checking the object. Code generated by Animate 2020 (which I suspect to be the final version of that software that generates AVM2 code) initializes the index at hero, and then does `hasnext2`, hence we have to start from one.
I actually cheated a little and added a separate `Vec` for storing enumerant names. I strongly suspect that Adobe's implementation has objects be inherently slot-oriented, and named properties are just hashmap lookups to slots. This would allow enumerating the slots to get names out of the object.
Our already odd `super` handling throws up another subtlety regarding bound recievers. Since we have to construct an instance of a parent class in order to get traits on it, we also have to make sure that we initialize traits with the correct reciever. I'll demonstrate here:
```let mut base = base_proto.construct(avm, context, &[])?;
let name = base.resolve_multiname(&multiname).unwrap();
let value = base.get_property(object, &name, avm, context)?.resolve(avm, context)?```
In this case, if `name` is the name of a method, getter, or setter trait, then `get_property` will instantiate that trait on `base` but bound to `reciever`. This is correct behavior for this case, but more generally, trait instantiation is permenant and therefore there's potential for confusing shenanigans if you `get_property` with the wrong reciever.
To be very clear, `reciever` should *always* be the same object that is getting `get_property` et. all called on it. In the event that you need to instantiate traits with a different `reciever`, you should construct a one-off object and retrieve prototypes from that.
Previously, we were treating ES4 classes like syntactic sugar over a prototype chain (like ES6 classes); e.g. each declared trait was set in the given prototype and then property look-ups happened as normal.
This already caused problems with virtual properties, which could be partially-defined in subclasses and required careful checks to make sure we stopped checking the prototype chain on the *correct* half of the property.
However, this is a hint of a larger problem, which is that ES4 classes don't actually define anything on the prototype chain. Instead, the instance itself constructs class properties and methods on itself. This allows things like methods automatically binding `this`, which isn't included in this commit but will be implemented really soon.
The prototype chain still exists even on pure ES4 classes, due to the need for backwards compatibility with ES3 code. Object, for example, still defines it's methods as prototype methods and thus there needs to be a prototype chain to reach them. I actually could have gotten away with using the prototype chain if AS3 *hadn't* retained this "legacy" detail of ES3 allowing this class/prototype distinction to leak out into upcoming tests.
We still actually use the prototype chain for one other thing: trait resolution. When we look for a trait to install onto an object, we pull traits from the prototype chain using a special set of `TObject` methods. This happens in opposite order from normal prototype lookups so that subclassing and verification can proceed correctly.
`super` somehow became even harder to implement: we now actually construct the parent class so we can get traits from it, which is going to complicate method binding as mentioned above.
This tests:
* Getter invocation
* Setter invocation
* Properties with one or the other, but not both
* Inheritance
* Superproperty getters and setters
* Getters with inherited setter
* Setters with inherited getter
The previous system for handling setters would execute the setter and then return a value to indicate whether or not the caller needed to resolve a stack frame. However, no caller of `Property.set` actually did this. Ergo, errors in setters and getters would not resolve up the stack at the correct time.
This problem also exists in AVM1 but is far less noticable as AVM1 only has two very uncommon runtime errors and very few movies use `throw`.
Normally, `set_property` only affects the object it was called on, which makes sense: otherwise, we couldn't override values that originate from a class prototype without accidentally monkey-patching the prototype. However, virtual setters only exist in prototypes and need to be accessible from child objects.
The solution to this is to have a specific method to check if a virtual setter exists. Virtual setters are then resolved through the prototype chain. If no virtual setter exists, then the reciever object is handed the value.
Note that we always use the `reciever` object rather than `self` so that `setsuper` can work correctly. In `setsuper`, we resolve the base class, and then set properties on it with the actual object in question as it's reciever. If a virtual setter is called, it will get the actual object it should be manipulating; and otherwise, prototypes will not be modified or consulted.
This required the reintroduction of dedicated reciever parameters to `Object.get_property_local` and `Object.set_property`, which I had removed from the AVM1 code I copied it from. It turns out being able to change the reciever was actually necessary in order to make super set/get work.
The previous system primarily relied on `Executable` to automatically start and continue a super chain. This works, but only for class hierarchies without *override gaps* - methods that override another method not defined by the direct superclass of the method. In that case, the override method would be called twice as the `base_class` was moved up one prototype at a time, which is wrong.
The new system relies on the call site to accurately report the prototype from which the current method was retrieved from. Super calls then start the resolution process *from the superclass of this prototype*, to ensure that the already-called method is skipped.
It should be noted that the proper `base_class` for things like `callmethod`, `callstatic`, `call`, `get`/`set` methods, and other call opcodes that don't use property look-up are best-effort guesses that may need to be amended later with better tests.
To facilitate `base_proto` resolution, a new `Object` method has been added. It's similar to `get_property`, but instead returns the closest prototype that can resolve the given `QName`, rather than the actual property's `ReturnValue`. Call operations use this to resolve the `base_proto`, and then resolve the method being called in `base_proto`. The existing `exec_super` method was removed and a `base_proto` method added to `exec` and `call`.
This works primarily by retaining the current superclass prototype in the activation object and then using it to retrieve the super method.
For constructors, we implement the `constructor` property, which is probably not the correct way to do this.
This currently treats `coerce_a` as a no-op. Strictly speaking, this is for type verification purposes, but we currently don't type-verify ABC code. Ergo, this requires no VM support at this time.
Also, implement a method table that method traits can optionally add themselves to.
Also also, add the ability to invoke a method without a `this` object. This required a non-trivial refactoring of the activation machinery, and changes to the signature of `NativeFunction`, and all native AVM2 functions.
In the future, the `unwrap_stack_frame` mechanism should be expanded upon to allow running exception handlers and recovering from a Rust error - but not today.
Notably, this also removes `new_closure_scope` as it is not needed. AVM1 does not capture `with` scopes in closures, but AVM2 (as well as modern ECMAScript) does.
We already have a menagerie of `install_*` functions for adding static properties to a an object; and we don't have to support any kind of asinine nonsense liks `ASSetPropFlags` here. Ergo, we don't need this.
In AVM1, these are necessary because `ActionGetVariable` et. all directly interface with the scope chain. In AVM2, you `findpropstrict` up the scope chain, which gives you a normal object that you can interact with as you like. Ergo, the scope chain doesn't need set/get property methods.
All constant pools in an ABC file are actually numbered starting from one; there's an implicit 0 entry not stored in the file that the runtime is expected to retrieve when pulling constants from the pool.
The AVM2/ABC spec only mentions this in passing.
This allows the AVM to declare classes, which necessitated some refactoring to avoid double-borrows or having to do something "magic" that would dodge virtual properties.
I'm writing all this code assuming that classes and traits are syntactic sugar around ES3-style prototype chains on function objects. Hence, `FunctionObject` is still our workhorse object type for implementing typing.
If a text field with a variable binding is placed on the stage,
usually the variable is initialized with the initial text. However,
if the text field is empty, the variable remains undefined.
Fixes#777.
Don't override set_matrix and set_x for TextFields, and leave the
bounds intact.
TODO: There are still some wrapping issues in the tests, but
this allows the simple case of single-line texts to render
correctly.
Add `EditText::variable` as well as `TextField.variable` property.
This commit only adds the getter/setter and does not yet add the
binding functionality.
DefineLocal will call a virtual setter if the property already exists
on the local object, including the local object's prototype chain.
DefineLocal2 will also not overwrite a property if it already exists
on the local object, including the local object's prototype chain.
This was originally intended to correctly position text within the border, but it appears borders are weird and this doesn't jive with what unbordered text does.
On the desktop player, shared objects will now be flushed on quit.
Attempting to retrieve an existing shared object will now return a

During the raising process, we maintain a list of pointers to the lowest-most `textformat`, `p`, `font`, `a`, `b`, `i`, and `u` in the document that we are appending to. When we get a new one of any of those elements, we clear the rest off the stack. This forces us to add HTML in the same order Flash does.
LIs are not yet supported because they require us to process text line-by-line which doesn't mesh with this model.
There's also a test but the XML DOM generates HTML strings with the wrong attribute order, so the test fails spuriously.
This necessitated a change to edittext_bullet, which turns out is accidentally an entity test, too. It now no longer uses entities so that it won't spuriously fail due to an entity related problem.
Bullets are implemented by rendering U+2022 as if it were normal text, but always placed 18px from the left of the line. This appears to be sort of what Flash does.
This also replaces the `edittext_html_defaults` test with a more robust test that checks the default format and global format of SWF-based, text, and HTML test vectors.
It *does*, however, respect `<sbr>` (which does the exact same thing), as well as `\n` (which makes absolutely no sense in HTML, normally that would get stripped out).
This implementation has a few bugs which appear to have something to do with alignment. It's not only justify, but justify is the only test that's flagged as failing.
If you look at the margins test, you'll see what I mean: right-aligned and justified text doesn't quite make it to the right edge of the box even though it should. I'm not sure why.
This also restricts text rounding further: `measure` now only rounds when wrapping text, since Flash Player appears to account for fractional pixels in all other cases.
There are several problems, first off:
1. I'm not entirely sure what I'm supposed to be changing on the text field when someone writes `html`.
2. We're using the XML parser for HTML (both `htmlText` and SWF tag parsing) which causes problems. Notably, `<br>` issues an AVM1 error (!!!) because the XML parser doesn't like unclosed tags.
3. Reading `htmlText` should not return the same HTML tree (at least, not until we implement stylesheets). It should instead regenerate an HTML tree from text spans.
This test is currently inaccurate by up to 5 pixels, this is due to some behavior with really, really wide tabstops and word breaks that I don't entirely get yet.
This was verified by visual comparison with Flash Player; lines of text appear to be shifted by half-pixels, while the script output is always still rounded down.
This is an approximate text with a 1-pixel tolerance because our height is currently off by one and I cannot explain why. Previous attempts to fix the bug have resulted in cascading errors that resulted in off-by-one errors in the opposite direction. This is still better than nothing and I need to check other tests in.
