Can you update the README to explain what this does now? |
|
path.evaluate in babel doesn't handle some of the cases like this The helper takes care of this scenario and also for references used before/after bindings and handles if its within same/diff scope. We need to enable this on simplify and DCE instead of babel evaluate. |

This will help in catching bugs where the refId path is replaced with something else. This has been an issue in DCE+mangle previously.

we can remove this as well. evaluate identifier takes care of this already.

This is required as well. For babel's evaluate to take care of globals. Here we ignore globals. In evaluatePath we depot it. If a referencedId makes it to evaluateId, we have to deopt instead of simply ignoring it. Though that code looks like it's never reached, it will be useful for detecting side-effects from other transformations.

lets extract this usage before init in to separate function.

should be referenceError right not void 0

yes. I'll skip this test for now. This doesn't go through evaluate.

Ahh that babel bug? can you put the link to the bug as well?

The transformation is not a babel-bug. It's a bug in one-use-replacements in DCE. The parsing is a babel-bug.

we need to use this evaluate in simplify as well in patterns matching case, this bug still exists #574 |
|
Simplify requires a lot of changes in updating scope. Postponing it for later. |
|
We are doing the same checks/ optimisations already here https://github.com/babel/babili/blob/master/packages/babel-plugin-minify-dead-code-elimination/src/index.js#L314 Some of the cases we discussed like function () {
var a = b;
console.log(b);
b = 10;
}are handled to an extent. |
|
Yeah. That code doesn't go through evaluate. It's a one time used variable replacement that doesn't have any side-effects. evaluate takes care of finding values. |
