• Removing dependency on non-standard String.trim function (#1630)

  divdavem - Mon Apr 18 2016 15:17:01 GMT+0200 (Romance Daylight Time)

  String.trim is a non-standard method implemented in Firefox:
  https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/String#String_generic_methods

  This commit removes the dependency on this method and changes the regular
  expression to match the one of the polyfill of String.prototype.trim from MDN:
  https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/String/trim

  This fixes the new test.aria.utils.String.testNullTrim test method
  which was introduced in #1626 (in commit afa3a47)
  and was failing on Firefox.

• Fixed the TabsJawsTest (by filtering) and improved the JAWS test utilities (#1628)

  • the TabJawsTest now ignores irrelevant content, especially the links that are clicked to have focus.
  • the EnhancedJawsTestCase now supports the use of a filter
  • the JawsTestCase now logs more information when there is an assert error

• aria.utils.String.trim now passes non-string arguments unmodified (#1626)

• Template parser and class generator improvements for tools (#1627)

  divdavem - Wed Apr 13 2016 18:33:21 GMT+0200 (Romance Daylight Time)

  This commit improves the template parser and class generator in the
  following ways:

  • the template tree now includes the processed source (which is the
    reference string for positions provided in the template tree)
  • during class generation, most statements now add a "properties" property
    on their corresponding template tree node, to contain the parsed
    version of their parameters, so that it is possible to avoid code
    duplication with tools which analyse templates and need those pieces of
    information too
  • the signature of the parseTemplate method in class generators was
    simplified so that it is easier to add options. The following options
    were added:
    • parseOnly: if true, the resulting class will not be generated, but
      the template is still fully parsed, including all statement properties
    • dontLoadWidgetLibs: If true, widget libraries referenced in the
      template will not be loaded during the class generation process,
      which is convenient if they are not available at that time. However,
      as a result, there will probably be missing dependencies in the
      generated class (but that is especially not a problem when parseOnly
      is true).

• createATSyncContext method to use Aria Templates from node.js more easily (#1606)

  divdavem - Tue Apr 12 2016 15:02:10 GMT+0200 (Romance Daylight Time)

  This commit adds the createATSyncContext method to the ariatemplates npm
  package.

  Here is an example showing how it can be used (from node.js) to load the
  aria.templates.TplClassGenerator class and compile a template
  synchronously:

  var createATSyncContext = require("ariatemplates/src/node").createATSyncContext;
  var context = createATSyncContext();
  context.Aria.load({
      classes : ["aria.templates.TplClassGenerator"]
  });
  context.execTimeouts(); // executes any timeout synchronously
  var classDef;
  context.aria.templates.TplClassGenerator.parseTemplate("{Template {$classpath:'a.b.C'}} {macro main()}It works!{/macro}{/Template}", true, function(response) {
      classDef = response.classDef;
  });
  context.execTimeouts(); // executes any timeout synchronously
  console.log(classDef); // here, classDef contains the generated class definition

  An previous version of the createATSyncContext function is included in
  atpackager,
  but it is probably better to share it in the Aria Templates package itself
  so that it can be used more easily by any project.
