4.14.0→4.15.3Release Notes
sebastienros/jint (Jint)
v4.15.3Jint 4.15.3 rounds out the 4.15 embedder line: every item here answers friction a real integration reported while adopting the host-integration surface 4.15.0 introduced. Everything is additive — no option defaults changed and no behavior changes for existing code.
Engine.Advanced.AddLazyGlobal(#2862) — install a lazy global on a live engine, so a host whose globals are computed from per-request data can defer building them until script reads the name; the same PR addsEngine.Advanced.WithRestoredGlobals(snapshot, action), thetry/finallyevery snapshot-reusing host was writing by hand.PropertyDescriptor.CreateLazy(#2865) — a public lazy property descriptor that materializes once and then rejoins the read and write inline caches, which a hand-rolledCustomJsValuedescriptor never could; it is the sanctioned way to build for any host object property whatAddLazyGlobaldoes for a global.Options.AddImmutableCrossing(params Type[])(#2863) — a host promise that instances of the declared CLR types do not change while they are exposed to the engine, in exchange for which a wrapped object memoizes its resolved reads. On the nested-document walk it was built for that measures −43% to −84% time and −99% allocation against the undeclared path, with dictionary andJsonNodesources converging to identical steady-state cost. It is a promise: a declared object mutated anyway will serve stale reads.Jint.EnableHostContractVerificationAppContext switch before the first use of any Jint type and the checks that catch a host answering one extension point in a way that contradicts another run in Release, throwing with a descriptive message. Embedders can now run their suites against the exact package they deploy instead of building a Debug Jint from source, and CI now runs this repository's own host suites that way too (#2866).Engine.Advanced.HasSharedShape(#2861) — a stable, pinnable predicate for whetherJsObject.Create,CreateFromEntriesorJsObjectShape.Instantiateactually produced a shared-layout object, which the explicitly non-contractualObjectRepresentationdiagnostic could never be.JsString.Create(string)is now public (#2860) — the counterpart ofJsNumber.Create, answering the empty string and single-character ASCII from interned instances instead of allocating.Baseholds an internal sentinel rather thanundefined, and resolver authors returning it were leaking that sentinel string into scripts; the docs and the in-repo sample now show the right idiom.What's Changed

Full Changelog: sebastienros/jint@v4.15.1...v4.15.2
v4.15.1Jint 4.15.1 is a small refinement release shaped by the first real-world adoptions of 4.15.0's host-integration surface — every change answers a need a shipping embedder hit within days of the release. No behavior changes for existing code, with one deliberate spec-path improvement:
Object.freezeno longer forces lazily-declared properties into existence just to validate attribute-only redefinitions (so freezingglobalThisno longer materializes every lazy global).JsObjectLayoutlazy slots (#2850) — a fresh shaped object per item can now defer expensive members: declareAddLazy(name, factory)on the layout, pass per-instance state toJsObject.Create, and the member materializes on first read while every item keeps sharing one hidden class. In the motivating host shape (a 15-member event envelope with 4 expensive members), builds measure ~3.6× faster with 4× fewer allocations than the eager layout, and ~1.6× faster than the dictionary-mode workaround it replaces.Engine.Advanced.GetPropertyAccessSemantics(#2847) lets a test pin the access semantics the engine derived for a host type, andGetInteropConversionDiagnostics(#2848) counts CLR array crossings so a host can audit itsArrayConversionexposure — including through dependencies it doesn't own. Both carry the same non-contractual, diagnostics-only framing asGetObjectRepresentation.PropertyFlag.NonWritable/OnlyConfigurable(#2849) complete the named combination lattice for the descriptor shapes hosts actually build.JsonSerializerreuse and itsUndefinedsentinel, theBigInt.prototype.toJSONescape hatch, what does not route throughGetOwnProperties(), and the snapshot reuse recipe.What's Changed
Full Changelog: sebastienros/jint@v4.15.0...v4.15.1
v4.15.0Jint 4.15.0 is an embedder-focused release: the host-integration surface was widened after auditing six real-world integrations, engine reuse got first-class support, and an adversarial pre-release review verified every change since 4.14.0 test-first. No option defaults changed. One behavior change to note: re-importing a module whose evaluation failed now rethrows the recorded error instead of returning a namespace (#2827).
Highlights
Host objects
TryGetOwnPropertyValue(#2808) and existence/enumerability questions without materializing descriptors withProbeOwnProperty(#2803); access semantics are derived from the type automatically (#2804). Warm host reads cost zero probes, and Debug builds verify every answer.ArrayLikeObject(#2835, #2841) projects a live indexed collection by implementing two members — indexed reads,for-of, spread, generics andJSON.stringifycost one virtual call per element.JsObjectShape(#2830, #2836, #2840) declares shared prototypes once per process with lazily materialized per-realm members — and a shaped prototype can serve the prototype-method inline cache, which no host subclass can.Engine reuse
CaptureGlobalSnapshot/RestoreGlobalSnapshot(#2834) restore a configured global between evaluations: top-levellet/constcleared (nothing else can), stale promise continuations fenced, warm per-engine caches kept. Configuration reuse — deliberately not an isolation boundary.AddLazyGlobal, #2805) or selectively viaPrepared<T>.ReferencedGlobals(#2831). The two compose with the snapshot.Interop
