Hi WebKittens. I’m planning to start implement JS BigInt proposal on JSC, however I would like to sync with you the way you are planning to implement such feature.
Right now, I’m thinking in implement BigInt operations into C++ (possibly on WTF?) and make the JSBigInt use this implementation. As I have checked with some other implementors, some of them are going to use libgmp (SpiderMonkey case), but I don’t think its license (GPLv2) aligns with WebKit’s license and I heard that V8 is implementing their BigInt lib as well. By now, I’m thinking in implement a proof of concept and then, optimize the BigInt lib part. So, what I would like to collect from you is: Is there any problem start work on that feature? It is one of the proposals that I’ve made to my Coding Experience at Igalia, so I will also have the support of developers from there, since they are implementing it on SpiderMonkey and the spec champion is also in the team. Regards, Caio. _______________________________________________ webkit-dev mailing list webkit-dev@lists.webkit.org https://lists.webkit.org/mailman/listinfo/webkit-dev
