buffer: DRY string encoding using StringBytes

2013-05-14T20:51:42+00:00

This also templatizes the Buffer::*Slice functions, and the template
function probably cannot be safely used outside of Node.  However, it
also SHOULD not be used outside of Node, so this is arguably a feature
as well as a caveat.

buffer: upgrade to new V8 profiler API

lint: add isolate, remove semicolon

2013-03-29T23:53:56+00:00

buffer: remove _charsWritten

2013-03-26T16:53:34+00:00

_charsWritten is an internal property that was constantly written to,
but never read from. So it has been removed.

Removed documentation reference as well.

src: write ascii strings using WriteOneByte

2013-03-21T17:15:28+00:00

WriteAscii will be deprecated soon from v8, and performance has
regressed. The v8 team recommended using WriteOneByte instead.

src: pass Isolate to all applicable api

2013-03-20T00:11:02+00:00

Update the api to pass node_isolate to all supported methods.

Much thanks to Ben Noordhuis and his work in 51f6e6a.

bindings: update api

2013-03-20T00:11:01+00:00

All compile time warnings about using deprecated APIs have been
suppressed by updating node's API. Though there are still many function
calls that can accept Isolate, and still need to be updated.

node_isolate had to be added as an extern variable in node.h and
node_object_wrap.h

Also a couple small fixes for Error handling.

Before v8 3.16.6 the error stack message was lazily written when it was
needed, which allowed you to change the message after instantiation.
Then the stack would be written with the new message the first time it
was accessed. Though that has changed. Now it creates the stack message
on instantiation. So setting a different message afterwards won't be
displayed.

This is not a complete fix for the problem. Getting error without any
message isn't very useful.

buffer: speed up ascii character scanning

2013-03-08T22:42:15+00:00

Speed up ASCII character scanning and conversion by 25% to 30% by scanning and
converting whole words instead of individual bytes.

buffer: strip high bits when converting to ascii

2013-03-08T22:42:15+00:00

Consider the following example:

  console.log(Buffer('ú').toString('ascii'));

Before this commit, the contents of the buffer was used as-is and hence it
prints 'ú'.

Now, it prints 'C:'. Perhaps not much of an improvement but it conforms to what
the documentation says it does: strip off the high bits.

Fixes #4371.
