Currently, JSON.stringify() is used to create error messages on failed assertions. This causes an error when stringifying objects with circular references. This commit switches out JSON.stringify() for util.inspect(), which can handle circular references.

Evented I/O for V8 javascript.
To build:
Prerequisites (Unix only):
* GCC 4.2 or newer
* G++ 4.2 or newer
* Python 2.6 or 2.7
* GNU Make 3.81 or newer
* libexecinfo (FreeBSD and OpenBSD only)
Unix/Macintosh:
./configure
make
make install
If your python binary is in a non-standard location or has a non-standard name, run the following instead:
export PYTHON=/path/to/python
$PYTHON ./configure
make
make install
Prerequisites (Windows only):
* Python 2.6 or 2.7
* Visual Studio 2010 or 2012
Windows:
vcbuild nosign
You can download pre-built binaries for various operating systems from http://nodejs.org/download/. The Windows and OS X installers will prompt you for the location in which to install. The tarballs are self-contained; you can extract them to a local directory with:
tar xzf /path/to/node-<version>-<platform>-<arch>.tar.gz
Or system-wide with:
cd /usr/local && tar --strip-components 1 -xzf \
/path/to/node-<version>-<platform>-<arch>.tar.gz
To run the tests:
Unix/Macintosh:
make test
Windows:
vcbuild test
To build the documentation:
make doc
To read the documentation:
man doc/node.1
Intl (ECMA-402) support:
Intl support is not enabled by default.
"small" (English only) support
This option will build with "small" (English only) support, but
the full Intl (ECMA-402) APIs. With --download=all it will
download the ICU library as needed.
Unix/Macintosh:
./configure --with-intl=small-icu --download=all
Windows:
vcbuild small-icu download-all
The small-icu mode builds
with English-only data. You can add full data at runtime.
Note: more docs are on the wiki.
Build with full ICU support (all locales supported by ICU):
With the --download=all, this may download ICU if you don't
have an ICU in deps/icu.
Unix/Macintosh:
./configure --with-intl=full-icu --download=all
Windows:
vcbuild full-icu download-all
Build with no Intl support :-(
The Intl object will not be available.
This is the default at present, so this option is not normally needed.
Unix/Macintosh:
./configure --with-intl=none
Windows:
vcbuild intl-none
Use existing installed ICU (Unix/Macintosh only):
pkg-config --modversion icu-i18n && ./configure --with-intl=system-icu
Build with a specific ICU:
You can find other ICU releases at
the ICU homepage.
Download the file named something like icu4c-**##.#**-src.tgz (or
.zip).
Unix/Macintosh: from an already-unpacked ICU
./configure --with-intl=[small-icu,full-icu] --with-icu-source=/path/to/icu
Unix/Macintosh: from a local ICU tarball
./configure --with-intl=[small-icu,full-icu] --with-icu-source=/path/to/icu.tgz
Unix/Macintosh: from a tarball URL
./configure --with-intl=full-icu --with-icu-source=http://url/to/icu.tgz
Windows: first unpack latest ICU to deps/icu
icu4c-##.#-src.tgz (or .zip)
as deps/icu (You'll have: deps/icu/source/...)
vcbuild full-icu
