This should only be minimally used, since the `terminal` value will usually be
what you are expecting. This option is specifically for the case where `terminal`
is false, but you still want colors to be output (or vice-versa).
The overall goal here is to make readline more interoperable with other node
Streams like say a net.Socket instance, in "terminal" mode.
See #2922 for all the details.
Closes#2922.
This is the JS representation of the `config.gypi` file that was used when
compiling node. With this information, you can tell whether the current node
binary has shared or static dependencies, or any other configuration options
that may have been used.
This reverts commit b0c1541227.
Reverted commit introduced a regression causing `process.argv[0]` to be
invalid in node processes spawned from `PATH` (without explicit path to
executable file - for example when using global node installation).
Instead of finding a correct path to the executable, `process.cwd()`
would be prepended to `process.argv[0]`.
These methods were removed a long time ago. Keeping these notices here
makes no sense anymore.
Also, removing this part of code slightly speeds up the startup.
It was decided that the performance benefits that isolates offer (faster spin-up
times for worker processes, faster inter-worker communication, possibly a lower
memory footprint) are not actual bottlenecks for most people and do not outweigh
the potential stability issues and intrusive changes to the code base that
first-class support for isolates requires.
Hence, this commit backs out all isolates-related changes.
Good bye, isolates. We hardly knew ye.
Also, if an error is already provided, then raise the provided
error, rather than throwing it with a less helpful 'stdout cannot
be closed' message.
This is important for properly handling EPIPEs.
This commit removes one assert from test-console.js in which we check that
process.stderr.write returns true. In the case of a dump to a file we cannot
guarantee this any longer now that it goes through fs.WriteStream.
