http://helma.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=626 Summary: Function definition does not overwrite variable
definition
Product: Helma
Version: CVS trunk
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P1
Component: JavaScript Interpreter
AssignedTo:
helma-dev@...
ReportedBy:
interface@...
The following code (if defined in global context) leads to an -- at least for
me -- unexpected result by giving the first definition of the variable "foo"
precedence to the second definition of the function "foo":
var foo = function() {
return "This is: var foo = function()";
}
function foo() {
return "This is: function foo()";
}
Root.prototype.main_action = function() {
res.write(foo());
}
Expected result:
This is: function foo()
Actual result:
This is: var foo = function()
I tested the same code in Firefox and it actually behaves the same. (WTF!?)
However, I don't understand this behaviour at all and consider this a bug
unless someone can explain it thoroughly. A pointer to a comprehensive source
might do the trick as well.
