Previously it returned the abort node from the alternative branch. This is
not much use as it can be different from the one in the body
branch (i.e. return vs. throw) and can trick us into issues like #591.
Fix#591
`\uFEFF` (ZERO WIDTH NO-BREAK SPACE) is removed when parsing, but was
un-escaped for the output when `ascii_only` was false.
When using
UglifyJS multiple times (creating packages from minified sources, for
example), this would lead to problems because the byte was removed when
parsing for the second time.
NaN and Infinity were replaced in the output generation, instead of
during compression. This could lead to results where `1/0` was inserted
without parens leading to invalid output.
The nodes are replaced in the compression step now, and the output
generation returns their regular names. This should not be a problem,
since they're already only constructed from the original name.
As `maybe_newline()` is only called when `might_need_semicolon` is `true`, the `max_line_len` option has no effect for files without (or with very few) semicolons (like JSON files). A simple for this problem is to use `maybe_newline()` instead of `noop` as the `newline()` function in non-beautify mode.
* Explicitly forbidden multiple catch clauses as SM-specific feature.
* Simplified describing of UglifyJS->Mozilla AST conversion rules.
* Moved alias rules to single place.
* Removed usage of dynamic type bindings in generated code (speed-up).
* Added directives recognition in SM AST.
* Moved semi-standard SM `Property` type to separate handler.
* Added `const` recognition from SM AST.
* Removed redundant `this`-as-identifier recognition.
* Removed redundant rules for abstract SM types.
* Described `CatchClause` using string syntax.
* Added support for semi-standard `range` tuple as location source.
* Added back-conversion support (to be improved).
This happens when SourceMapConsumer does not have a valid position to map the input line and column. This is a change in mozilla/source-map starting from version 0.1.33
Fixes#436
The effect of not mangling it was visible only with --screw-ie8 (otherwise
the names would be mangled exactly because they leaked into the parent
scope).
