Date.toString: ReferenceError: cache is not defined

[Albert Zeyer]

Hi,

I tried to use the --use_strict flag in V8. In some code where I call String(someDateObj), I get this error:

ReferenceError: cache is not defined

    at Date.toString (native)

    at String (native)

    ... (my own code)

That cache reference is definitely not in my own code.

Is this a bug in V8? That is V8 3.25.8.

Thanks,

Albert

Sounds like it. Can you provide a minimal example of code that would
trigger the error?

Thanks,
/Andreas

String(new Date());

However, using "use strict"; doesn't trigger the exception, only the V8 flag --use_strict does.

Søren, this was introduced in r6067.

https://code.google.com/p/v8/source/browse/branches/bleeding_edge/src/date.js#766

On line 766 cache is assigned but there is no variable binding for cache.
