Reimplement bits of the Mozilla JavaScript virtual machine in JavaScript (builtins) #14

Open Yoric opened 12 years ago

Yoric commented 12 years ago

Many functions of the Mozilla JavaScript virtual machine are written in C++ but could be rewritten in JavaScript.

For instance, Array.prototype.forEach or Function.prototype.bind could be rewritten. This would improve the speed of JavaScript and make code easier to maintain.
