Support alternative JS runtime other than SpiderMonkey #151

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
GGL needs support for other JS runtimes like JavaScriptCore. 

How dependent is GGL on SpiderMonkey? 

Regards

Jan

Supporting other JS runtimes is possible and shouldn't be very difficult. We'd
appreciate if somebody can help on it.

And we are already working on QtScript for ggl-qt host and ggl-plasma host.

Could this use Google's new open source JavaScript runtime V8, which it touts 
as its
"open source, high performance JavaScript engine"?  It was created for use with 
the
new Google Chrome, and they claim that V8 is a large reason why Chrome is 
supposed to
be faster, and more efficient in handling memory and garbage collecting.
