14.1.12 Static Semantics: IsFunctionDefinition

[CountOrlok]

I think there is something missing in IsFunctionDefinition at 14.1.12. The operation as described here will only return true if the given production is a named function definition, but false for anonymous function definitions.

Therefore when calling IsAnonymousFunctionDefinition with argument production, the first algorithm step would always return false for anonymous function expressions and the operation HasName would be unreachable.

So it rather should be:

14.1.12 Static Semantics: IsFunctionDefinition

FunctionExpression: function (FormalParameters) {FunctionBody}

FunctionExpression: function BindingIdentifier (FormalParameters) {FunctionBody}

Return true.

[as in ES2015: IsFunctionDefiniton]

Or is there a reason for changing this?

I agree. (This also applies to classes and generator functions.)

Right, as noted in the original issue, this appears to be a regress from the original ES6. The bug also occurs in 14.4.9 and 14.5.8
