- assign statement does not count towards variable usage by default
- only works with assignments on the same scope level as declaration
- can be disabled with `unused` set to "keep_assign"
- `toplevel` to drop unused top-level variables and/or functions
- `top_retain` to whitelist top-level exceptions
closes#1450
- remove call to evaluate() in is_constant() and let nested optimize() does its job instead
- reject RegExp in is_constant() and remove special case logic under collapse_vars
- operands to conditionals optimisation are now always evaluate()-ed
- throw error in constant_value() instead of returning undefined to catch possible bugs, similar to make_node_from_constant()
- optimise binary boolean operators under `evaluate` instead of `conditionals`
Fixes: #1247
Fix --mangle-props and --name-cache inconsistency.
AST_Dot and AST_Sub properties are now mangled by --mangle-props
without regard to being used in an assignment statement.
Note: if --mangle-props is used then *all* javascript files used must
be uglified with the same mangle options.
Fix the ignore_quoted=true mangle option, also known as
`--mangle-props=unquoted`. If a given property is quoted anywhere
it will not be mangled in any quoted or non-quoted context.
catch identifier is mangled correctly for ES5 standards-compliant JS engines by default.
Unconditionally use the ie8 if/do-while workaround whether or not --screw-ie8 is enabled.
To support non-standard ie8 javascript use: uglifyjs --support-ie8
This should simplify and improve implementation, make it easier to
implement template strings, and keep master a bit more in sync with
harmony.
Previous implementation wasn't broken, though the loop gave me the
impression it could read infinite numbers and annoyed me a bit. It was
also slightly unnecessary because the lookup involved only 3 characters.
The option added in fbbaa42ee5 wasn't
being respected inside object literals, so quoted property names would
still be stripped out with this option.
This is mostly a corner-case, but useful when the output is passed to
something like the Closure compiler, where quoted property names can be
used to prevent mangling.
