Latest commit 5eb8031 Jul 7, 2016 @jianchun jianchun chakrashim: a few refactors for clang 
Found a few minor issues while trying to compile with clang:
- `Global` implementation had `this.xx`. Should be `this->xx`.
- clang requires forward declaration of `ObjectData` for its usage. Rather
  than forwarding this private symbol, I refactored the code to hide it
  from public header.

Ran cpplint and fixed accordingly on the changed files.

Node.js on ChakraCore

This project enables Node.js to optionally use the ChakraCore JavaScript engine. This project is still work in progress and not an officially supported Node.js branch. Please refer to the original PR.

How it works

To enable building and running Node.js with the ChakraCore JavaScript engine, a V8 API shim (ChakraShim) is created on top of the ChakraCore runtime hosting API (JSRT). ChakraShim implements the most essential V8 APIs so that the underlying JavaScript engine change is transparent to Node.js and other native addon modules written for V8.

A rebuild node.exe and native addon modules with ChakraCore is required for this to work.

Issues

Please report all issues related to Node-ChakraCore on this separate issue page.

Prebuilt Node binaries

You can download and install prebuilt Node-ChakraCore from here.

How to build

If you are looking to build this yourself. Here's what you will need.

Prerequisites:

Build Command:

vcbuild chakracore nosign [x86|x64|arm]

How to test

vcbuild chakracore nobuild test [x86|x64|arm]

To test if Node.js was built correctly with ChakraCore:

C:\>node -e "console.log('Hello from Node.js ' + process.jsEngine)"
Hello from Node.js chakracore
