Release notes
Sourced from Jint's releases.
4.14.0
Jint 4.14.0 is an interop-focused performance release: CLR arrays now cross into script as live views instead of copies, recently wrapped host objects reuse their wrappers, single-candidate interop method calls dispatch through compiled invokers, and
JSON.parseinterns repeated keys and values. Host collection traversal is 10.9× faster than 4.13.0. Two interop defaults changed in this release — read the first two highlights if you pass CLR arrays to scripts or rely on per-crossing conversion behavior; everything else needs no code changes to benefit.Highlights
CLR arrays are live views by default (behavior change).
Options.Interop.ArrayConversionnow defaults toArrayConversionMode.LiveView(#2721, #2728, #2735): a single-rankT[]crossing into script becomes a live, fixed-size view over the underlying array — the way wrappedList<T>already behaves — instead of being copied into a new JS array on every read. Writes go through in both directions, and arrays exposed through read-only-declared members (e.g.IReadOnlyList<T>) produce read-only views. Iteration,Array.prototypemethods, JSON serialization, index-key enumeration (Object.keys/for..inyield"0".."n-1") andundefinedfor out-of-range reads all behave array-like, butArray.isArrayreturnsfalse, and because CLR arrays are fixed-size, resizing operations (push/pop/lengthwrites) throw aTypeErrorlike integer-indexed exotic objects do —shift/splicemay move elements before their length change throws, as for typed arrays. SetOptions.Interop.ArrayConversion = ArrayConversionMode.Copyto restore the 4.13 behavior.Recently wrapped CLR objects reuse their wrappers (behavior change). The new
Options.Interop.CacheRecentObjectWrappersdefaults totrue(#2734): a small bounded ring (8 entries, keyed by reference identity and exposed type) reuses wrappers for host objects that repeatedly cross into script. Wrapper identity becomes stable (host.Obj === host.Obj), script-attached state (freeze,defineProperty, expandos) survives crossings, and the per-crossing wrapper allocation disappears. UnderCopyarray conversion this also means repeated reads of the same CLR array reuse the firstJsArraysnapshot while it stays cached — CLR-side mutations are not re-copied; set the option tofalsefor the pre-4.14 fresh-snapshot-per-crossing behavior.Engine.Dispose()releases the ring.Interop fast lanes. Single-candidate method calls run through a compiled invoker that binds and invokes without argument arrays or boxing (#2733), with per-parameter binding flags precomputed (#2719). Resolved
ObjectWrappermembers get a per-call-site inline cache (#2722) and the member-call fast path covers primitive string receivers (#2717). Array-like wrapper creation is a cached factory call with lazily materializedlength(#2730), primitive elements convert without boxing on both indexed reads andArray.prototypeiteration (#2731, #2735), the wrapper identity caches cover CLR arrays (#2716), and implicitly implemented interface methods are deduplicated in member resolution (#2711).JSON.
JSON.parseinterns property keys and string values within a parse, parses numbers off the span with an exactly-rounded fast path and scans string content in bulk (#2718, #2725, #2732) — thejson-parse-moderncomparison row is 6% faster with 23% less allocation than 4.13.0. Parsing is also aligned with the JSON grammar (#2738): malformed numbers like-09and1.are now rejected as in V8, while raw U+2028/U+2029 in strings and escaped control characters in keys — both valid JSON — are now accepted.Strings. Chained
slice/substringandsplitsegments stay zero-copy views (#2720), whole-stringsubstring/substrreturn the receiver, and mismatched-length comparisons no longer materialize views (#2740).Execution constraints at host boundaries. Timeouts and cancellation are re-checked when control returns from host CLR code, so detection latency is bounded by one host call instead of a statement-count window, without adding per-statement cost — gated on execution depth so host-side reads of wrapped objects on an idle engine never observe a stale timer (#2713, #2714, #2715). Execution-context depth stays balanced when constraint exceptions unwind generator/async frames, and a host callback that re-enters the engine no longer resets the outer script's budget (#2736).
Correctness (including a pre-release review). A review of everything since 4.13.0 fixed: spurious TDZ when a for-header reads a name the loop body shadows (#2709) and stale closure captures from destructuring defaults in for-loop headers (#2739); the compiled-invoker lane now defers to custom
ITypeConverters and preserves reflection exception types (#2737); and the new wrapper defaults were hardened — declared-type contracts for arrays (anIReadOnlyList<T>-typed member no longer yields a writable view), a static type-mapper poisoning crash,Engine.Disposereleasing the wrapper caches, and JS-arrayin/enumeration/out-of-range semantics on array views (#2735). Closure reads memoize slot-cache chain reachability (#2726).On the engine comparison benchmarks, Jint 4.14.0 beats ClearScript (native V8) by 7.1×–9.1× on every script ↔ host interop row — host collection traversal went from last to second among all engines at 15,597 → 1,433 µs with 99% less allocation — while remaining the fastest managed engine on 10 of 12 pure-JS scripts and the fastest interpreter on all 12, and now leading
array-stressanddromaeo-object-array, rows V8 narrowly led at 4.13.0.What's Changed

4.13.0
Jint 4.13.0 is a performance- and correctness-focused release. It brings a Proxy overhaul — trap dispatch rebuilt to forward with near-zero allocation, plus a new public API for implementing traps in .NET — extends the unboxed interpreter fast lanes to more operators and loop shapes, and cuts allocations on
for..of, nested-function calls and array enumeration. A thorough pre-release review of everything since 4.12.0 also fixed several correctness bugs. No code changes are required to benefit.Highlights
Proxy overhaul, and a CLR trap API. Proxy trap dispatch was rebuilt around a shared skeleton with lazy argument construction and pooled arrays, so a proxy with no matching trap forwards to its target with effectively zero allocation (#2674, #2675, #2676). Proxies can now be implemented from .NET:
Engine.Advanced.CreateProxy/CreateRevocableProxyaccept aProxyHandlerwhose virtual methods are the traps, with the same invariant enforcement as JavaScript handlers (#2678). Several Proxy spec fixes came along —getPrototypeOf/setPrototypeOfwith null prototypes (#2668), theconstructtrap's argument array (#2670), capturing[[Construct]]at creation (#2669), and thegettrap firing for a property namedrevoke(#2667) — and theObjectWrapperiterator helpers are hardened against foreign and revoked receivers (#2681).Interpreter fast lanes. New unboxed operand lanes for the arithmetic binary operators (#2664) and an int32 fast lane for remainder (#2671) remove per-iteration boxing; flag-proven casts use
Unsafe.Ason the hot paths (#2673) andJsNumber.Createavoids a nativefmod(#2662). Strict-equality guards againstundefined/null/typeofare fused (#2658), member-expression identifier reads route through the identifier caches (#2660), and the identifier slot cache is restructured hop-0-first (#2689). The tight-loop fast lane now coverswhileanddo-whilebodies (#2688).Lower allocations.
for..ofover an array no longer allocates an iterator-result object per element (#2700); per-call nested-function instantiation is allocation-free (#2684);for-inover arrays enumerates dense indices lazily without materializing a key list (#2656); and observation-only constraint checks are amortized so tight loops stay fast under a timeout (#2672).RegExp. Quantified groups without capture or lookaround hazards prefer the .NET
Regexengine (#2682), reused .NET adaptations adaptively upgrade toRegexOptions.Compiled(#2690), and the custom engine's match timeout is enforced by an inline deadline rather than a thread-pool timer (#2686).Correctness (including a pre-release review). A review of everything since 4.12.0 fixed: a regex routing regression that silently truncated matches for nullable non-capturing quantified groups (#2694) and a custom-engine bug dropping iterations for multi-atom quantified groups (#2699); Proxy trap dispatch is now atomic against a mid-dispatch revoke (#2696); top-level
awaitof a .NETTaskin a module (#2665), plus prompt cancellation of the await drain (#2697); theargumentsobject escaping a short-circuiting logical compound assignment un-materialized (#2698);for-innow includes inherited enumerable index properties onArray.prototype(#2655); and the memory limit stays exact in tight loops (#2695).Across the managed JavaScript engines for .NET, Jint 4.13.0 is the fastest engine on 17 of the 21 comparison scripts — and the fastest interpreter on all 21 — while allocating far less memory than the other engines;
dromaeo-3d-cubeis ~9% faster anddromaeo-string-base64~10% faster than 4.12.0. See the engine comparison benchmarks for the full table.What's Changed

4.12.0
Jint 4.12.0 is a performance- and correctness-focused release. It completes the move to hidden-class shapes across the whole object model, extends the unboxed interpreter fast lanes to more operators and call shapes, and adds a layer of per-engine caching so re-executed scripts and re-created functions reuse their compiled metadata and environments. A pre-release review of everything since 4.11.0 also fixed several correctness regressions. No code changes are required to benefit.
Highlights
Object model — shapes everywhere. The hidden-class shape model now backs the built-in prototypes and constructors,
TypedArrays, the global object, andIntl/Temporal(#2580, #2581, #2582, #2590, #2595, #2597).JSON.parsebuilds its result objects as shapes, so an array of like-shaped records costs one allocation per record instead of a property dictionary each (#2634). Object literals inside generator/async frames and object spread{...src}adopt shapes too (#2596, #2648, #2635), and a provably-simple constructor shapes its instances from the third construction (#2636).Interpreter fast lanes. New unboxed operand lanes for equality, bitwise, modulo-equality and sum-of-products expressions remove per-iteration boxing (#2602, #2604, #2611, #2628), and comparison operands are served from the validated global-descriptor cache (#2603). Expression-only and
if/elsefor-loop bodies run through a tight per-iteration cycle with a member-bound loop test (i < arr.length) (#2605, #2617, #2623), env-less leaf calls run against the captured environment directly (#2627), and functions that cannot observe theirthisskipthis-binding (#2626).Caching & reuse. Nested-scope global reads and writes are served from a validated global-binding cache (#2584, #2625); hoisted function and class definitions, and the top-level statement handler tree, are reused across re-evaluations on an engine (#2613, #2615, #2649); and
for-of/for-inreuse a fixed-slot per-iteration environment, skipping per-iteration TDZ re-init where it is provably safe (#2586, #2632).Lower allocations. A coverage campaign added benchmarks for common patterns the suite did not exercise and then closed the hotspots they surfaced (#2630): resolved
awaitchains and engine-internal promise reactions (#2639),for-inenumeration (#2640),throw/catch(#2641), primitive number/boolean/bigint methods (no wrapper object, #2642), and tagged templates (#2638) all allocate far less.Correctness. Fixes for sticky + global
[Symbol.match]returning wrong results (#2600), an unlabeledbreakescaping a labeledswitch(#2607),-0in integer multiplication (#2620), and raw property writes on shaped hosts (#2591, #2601). A pre-release review (#2651) additionally fixedfor-inre-enumerating a shadowed key (a mid-loop delete and a pooled-iterator reuse case), mapped-argumentswrites being lost after the call returns (and duplicate-parameter mapping now follows the spec), and hardened the object-literal and built-in-shape paths.Across the managed JavaScript engines for .NET, Jint 4.12.0 is the fastest engine on 17 of the 21 comparison scripts — and the fastest interpreter on all 21 — leading by up to ~5.4× over the next-fastest engine while allocating 2×–63× less memory than the closest competitor. See the engine comparison benchmarks for the full table.

4.11.0
Jint 4.11.0 is a performance-focused release. It completes the move to a hidden-class shape model for the object system and adds a family of unboxed interpreter fast lanes, so the most common patterns — object and array construction, property access, tight numeric loops, and
eval— do less work and allocate far less memory, with no change to behavior.Highlights
evalruns in slot-backed environments (#2565), direct-recursive calls pool their environments (#2549), andFunction-constructor instances reuse a definition-level environment (#2579).Function.prototype.toStringsource-text retention is now opt-in (#2562), and the changes above cut allocations across the board — direct recursion, for example, allocates up to ~99% less.await(#2567),Mapiteration during mutation (#2570), andShadowRealmevaluation ofsuper/new.target(#2573).Across the managed JavaScript engines for .NET, Jint 4.11.0 is the fastest on most object, string and regex workloads — 1.7–5× over the next-fastest engine — while allocating 2–63× less memory than the closest competitor.

4.10.1
Overview
Jint 4.10.1 is a small follow-up to 4.10.0 that continues the memory-reduction work. Arrays no longer carry a dedicated
PropertyDescriptorfor theirlength(#2540) and an extraPropertyDescriptorallocation on the data-property creation path was removed (#2537), trimming GC pressure further with no code changes required. It also fixes a strict-mode spec gap where writing to a read-only array index failed to throw aTypeError(#2542), and refreshes the engine-comparison benchmarks (#2517) and dependencies (#2545).What's Changed

4.10.0
Overview
Jint 4.10.0 is a performance- and memory-focused release. The bulk of this cycle went into making the interpreter run faster and allocate less, with additional work on CLR interop speed and diagnostics, plus a handful of correctness and spec-compliance fixes.
If you execute the same scripts repeatedly, run interop-heavy workloads, or care about GC pressure, this release should give you a meaningful, no-code-changes-required speedup.
Highlights
Interpreter performance
x++updates via version-gated inline caches (#2507, #2514).FunctionDeclarationInstantiationskipped entirely when there's nothing to do (#2502), lazy constructor.prototypecreation (#2512), and no more per-call closure allocation inEvaluateBody(#2534).evalandnew Functionsources (#2503), and a fix for prepared scripts that were running slower than re-parsed source (#2504).String.prototype.splitwith a string separator (#2519).Reduced allocations & memory footprint

4.9.3
Highlights
Jint 4.9.3 is a maintenance release on top of 4.9.2 that closes the remaining test262 gaps from the 4.9.x line, hardens bulk built-ins against runaway inputs, and delivers large TypedArray performance gains. There are no public API surface changes, but host code that reads an error's
stackshould review the breaking-change note below, plus one additional minor behavioral note.ECMAScript spec coverage
The bundled test262 suite was bumped to its latest snapshot and the spec gaps it surfaced were implemented — the full conformance suite now passes with 0 failures (#2489, #2490):
Error.prototype.stackaccessor (error-stack-accessor proposal) —stackis now a configurableget/setaccessor on%Error.prototype%rather than an own data property on each instance. This is a breaking change for host (C#) code that readsstack— see the breaking-change note below.ArrayBufferwrite rejection —%TypedArray%.prototypemutators (copyWithin/fill/reverse/set/sort), theAtomicsread-modify-write ops, andUint8ArraysetFromBase64/setFromHexnow throwTypeErrorbefore any observable side effect when the backing buffer is immutable.NumberFormatandDateTimeFormat, plus the newIntl.PluralRulescompactDisplayoption.Temporal.ZonedDateTime— rejects not-yet-adopted calendar annotations and correctly rounds to start-of-day when midnight occurs twice across a fall-back DST transition.import source x from "…"; export { x };is now supported (#2490).Performance
System.Array.Copy/Span<T>instead of per-element decode/encode loops.set,slice,copyWithin,with,fill,reverse,toReversed, and theindexOf/lastIndexOf/includesscans are now roughly 80×–350× faster with drastically lower allocations (#2488).Robustness
'x'.padStart(2147483647)orArray.from({ length: 50000000 }), along with theArray/%TypedArray%/RegExp/JSON/Stringbulk loops, now honorTimeoutInterval/MaxStatements/LimitMemoryand raise a catchableRangeErrorinstead of hanging or throwing an uncatchableOutOfMemoryException.Correctness
vpatterns that were incorrectly rejected (e.g./-/v,/&&/v,/[\!]/v) (#2481).new RegExp(...),RegExp(...),.compile(...),String.prototype.match, etc. (#2482).stackfrom host codeThe
Error.prototype.stackaccessor change above also affects host (C#) code that inspects an error's stack trace. Previouslystackwas an own data property of every error instance, so an own-property read found the trace directly. It is now aget/setaccessor defined on%Error.prototype%and is no longer an own property of the instance (#2489).As a result, reading the trace with
ObjectInstance.TryGetValue("stack", out var v)now yieldsundefined.TryGetValuestill walks the prototype chain and finds the accessor on%Error.prototype%, but it invokes the inherited getter with the prototype as the receiver instead of the original error instance. The prototype has no[[ErrorData]]internal slot, so the getter returnsundefinedand the captured trace is lost.Read the value through the accessor-aware
Get, which threads the correct receiver:For .NET
Regexobjects exposed to the engine,JsRegExp.Source/ToString()now return the placeholder?[native regex]instead of the raw .NET pattern — the .NET pattern was misleading because it isn't a valid JS pattern (#2482).What's Changed

4.9.1
A bug-fix release focused on async correctness, number-to-string conversion, and CLR interop edge cases.
Highlights
Async correctness
Three fixes together close a set of holes in
async/awaitand event-loop behavior:WaitForEventAsyncwaiters are all signaled now — previously only one waiter would wake when an event arrived (#2427).if/for/while/try/switch) (#2469) and through every expression type (#2475). Awaiting inside these constructs no longer drops state or fails to resume.If you use Jint's async API, this release is worth picking up.
Number.prototype.toString(radix)no longer overflows(-12345e+30).toString(2)and other large-magnitude calls used to cast directly tolong, overflowing at ~9.22e18 and returning wrong digits (or throwing). The integer part now goes throughBigIntegeronce it exceedslongrange, producing the mathematically exact base-rrepresentation for radix 2 through 36 (#2471).CLR interop: oversize numeric inputs
Numeric values that don't fit in the target CLR type now surface as a JavaScript
RangeErrorinstead of silently overflowing (#2465).Spec conformance
