Async call handling about njstrace

[ValYouW]

Not sure I understand the question.

hi,
could you please help me? It seems async is not supported.
If I change the example file to this, exception happens when I try to run.

// *** mymod.js ***
exports.run = async function(number) {
number = await first(number);
printResult(number);
}

@drv1234 async/await is part of ES8, need to check if it supported by the javascript parser being used

[drv1234]

I use the latest node js. Without njstrace instrment the code runs fine.

here is the printout:

I know async await is suppurted in Nodejs, it is not supported by the library I am using to parse the javascript files (at lease in the way I'm currently doing it)

[drv1234]

Thanks.
Are you planning to support it in the near future?
Or shall I find other ways?

[ValYouW]

It is really up to whether this library supports it, if it does it should be relatively easy to support it. I'll try to find some time to check it on the weekend

[drv1234]

Thank you in advance!
Please let me know.

[ValYouW]

@drv1234 Please see if the latest version (1.0.1) works for you. Did some very basic async/await and it seems ok, not sure how it will work on a large scale project...

[drv1234]

hi,
thanks, I tried on my project and it works like a charm.

But...
The named (optional) parameters are not printed even if they are in the caller line.
I don't know is it up to you or it comes from external lib.
(unfortunately there are a lot of this kind of function in my project, because it is a test framework and it is continuously developed but older test are not modified)

To see, modify the example:

// *** main.js
:
mymod.run(parseFloat(Math.random().toFixed(4)), xx=11);

// *** mymod.js ***
exports.run = async function (number, xx=22) {
