558956 - abcasm: support for TypeName multinames

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(Tamarin Graveyard :: Tools, defect)

Description

[Chris Peyer]

It is not currently possible to generate abcasm of the following:

(abcdump -abs output)

var function():*	/* disp_id=0 method_id=0 */
{
  // local_count=2 max_scope=0 max_stack=1 code_len=5 code_offset=172
  0         pushnull      	
  1         coerce        	__AS3__.vec::Vector.<__AS3__.vec::Vector.<__AS3__.vec::Vector.<__AS3__.vec::Vector.<__AS3__.vec::Vector.<__AS3__.vec::Vector.<__AS3__.vec::Vector.<__AS3__.vec::Vector.<__AS3__.vec::Vector.<private::D>>>>>>>>>
  3         setlocal1     	
  4         returnvoid    	
}

original as:
function t() {
var v:Vector.<Vector.<Vector.<Vector.<Vector.<Vector.<Vector.<Vector.<Vector.<D>>>>>>>>>;
}


I'm unable to create regression media for Bug 556874 since asc gets a stack overflow when creating a deeply nested Vector.  Support for this is needed in abcasm in order to create the testcase.

Let's try that comment again.  abcasm doesn't have any support for the TypeName variant of a multiname, but it should be straightforward to implement.
