JavaScript strict mode refers to running code under strict conditions. This mode defines a different parsing and execution model for JavaScript. It will check developers’ code errors under stricter conditions. It can be used globally or locally (applied inside a function).
The operating environment of this tutorial: windows7 system, javascript version 1.8.5, Dell G3 computer.
1. What is strict mode
In ES5, JS introduced the concept of strict mode for the first time. JavaScript strict mode runs under strict conditions.
Strict mode defines a different parsing and execution model for JavaScript. It will check your code errors under more stringent conditions. It can be used globally or locally (applied inside the function ). It is very necessary to understand the rules of strict mode. In the future, ECMAScript will gradually force the use of strict mode globally.
As the name suggests, this mode makes Javascript run under more stringent conditions.
The purpose of establishing "strict mode" is mainly as follows:
- Eliminate some unreasonable and imprecise aspects of Javascript syntax and reduce some weird behaviors;
- Eliminate some insecurities in code running and ensure the safety of code running;
- Improve compiler efficiency and increase running speed;
- Pave the way for new versions of Javascript in the future .
"Strict Mode" reflects the more reasonable, safer and more rigorous development direction of Javascript. Mainstream browsers, including IE 10, already support it, and many large projects have begun to fully embrace it.
On the other hand, the same code may have different running results in "strict mode"; some statements that can be run in "normal mode" will not be able to be run in "strict mode" run. Mastering these contents will help you understand Javascript in more detail and make you a better programmer.
This article will introduce "strict mode" in detail.
2. Entry sign
The sign of entering "strict mode" is the following line of statement:
"use strict";
老version of the browser will treat it as an ordinary string and ignore it.
3. How to call
"Strict mode" has two calling methods, which are suitable for different occasions.
3.1 For the entire script file
Put "use strict" on the first line of the script file, and the entire script will run in "strict mode". If this line of statement is not the first line, it has no effect and the entire script runs in "normal mode". This needs special attention if code files from different modes are merged into one file.
(Strictly speaking, as long as it is not preceded by a statement that produces actual operating results, "use strict" does not need to be on the first line, such as directly following an empty semicolon.)
<script>
"use strict";
console.log("这是严格模式。");
</script>
<script>
console.log("这是正常模式。");kly, it's almost 2 years ago now. I can admit it now - I run it on my school's network that has about 50 computers.
</script>The above code indicates that there are two pieces of Javascript code in a web page. The former script tag is in strict mode, but the latter one is not.
3.2 For a single function
Put "use strict" on the first line of the function body, and the entire function will run in "strict mode".
function strict(){
"use strict";
return "这是严格模式。";
}
function notStrict() {
return "这是正常模式。";
}3.3 Alternative way of writing script files
Because the first calling method is not conducive to file merging, a better approach is to borrow the second method and The entire script file is placed in an anonymous function that is executed immediately.
(function (){
"use strict";
// some code here
})();4. Syntax and behavior changes
Strict mode has made some changes to the syntax and behavior of Javascript.
4.1 Explicit declaration of global variables
In normal mode, if a variable is assigned a value without being declared, the default is a global variable. Strict mode prohibits this usage and global variables must be declared explicitly.
"use strict";
v = 1; // 报错，v未声明
for(i = 0; i < 2; i++) { // 报错，i未声明
}Therefore, in strict mode, variables must be declared with the var command before use.
4.2 Static Binding
One of the characteristics of the Javascript language is that it allows "dynamic binding", that is, which object some properties and methods belong to, not in which object they belong to. It is determined at compile time, but at runtime.
Strict mode places some restrictions on dynamic binding. In some cases, only static binding is allowed. In other words, which object the properties and methods belong to is determined during the compilation stage. This will help improve compilation efficiency, make the code easier to read, and cause fewer surprises.
Specifically, it involves the following aspects.
(1) It is forbidden to use the with statement
Because the with statement cannot determine at compile time which object the attribute belongs to.
"use strict";
var v = 1;
with (o){ // 语法错误
v = 2;
}(2) Create eval scope
In normal mode, the Javascript language has two variable scopes (scope): global scope and function scope. Strict mode creates a third scope: eval scope.
正常模式下，eval语句的作用域，取决于它处于全局作用域，还是处于函数作用域。严格模式下，eval语句本身就是一个作用域，不再能够生成全局变量了，它所生成的变量只能用于eval内部。
"use strict";
var x = 2;
console.info(eval("var x = 5; x")); // 5
console.info(x); // 24.3 增强的安全措施
（1）禁止this关键字指向全局对象
function f(){
return !this;
}
// 返回false，因为"this"指向全局对象，"!this"就是false
function f(){
"use strict";
return !this;
}
// 返回true，因为严格模式下，this的值为undefined，所以"!this"为true。因此，使用构造函数时，如果忘了加new，this不再指向全局对象，而是报错。
function f(){
"use strict";
this.a = 1;
};
f();// 报错，this未定义（2）禁止在函数内部遍历调用栈
function f1(){
"use strict";
f1.caller; // 报错
f1.arguments; // 报错
}
f1();4.4 禁止删除变量
严格模式下无法删除变量。只有configurable设置为true的对象属性，才能被删除。
"use strict";
var x;
delete x; // 语法错误
var o = Object.create(null, {'x': {
value: 1,
configurable: true
}});
delete o.x; // 删除成功4.5 显式报错
正常模式下，对一个对象的只读属性进行赋值，不会报错，只会默默地失败。严格模式下，将报错。
"use strict";
var o = {};
Object.defineProperty(o, "v", { value: 1, writable: false });
o.v = 2; // 报错严格模式下，对一个使用getter方法读取的属性进行赋值，会报错。
"use strict";
var o = {
get v() { return 1; }
};
o.v = 2; // 报错严格模式下，对禁止扩展的对象添加新属性，会报错。
"use strict";
var o = {};
Object.preventExtensions(o);
o.v = 1; // 报错严格模式下，删除一个不可删除的属性，会报错。
"use strict"; delete Object.prototype; // 报错
4.6 重名错误
严格模式新增了一些语法错误。
（1）对象不能有重名的属性
正常模式下，如果对象有多个重名属性，最后赋值的那个属性会覆盖前面的值。严格模式下，这属于语法错误。
"use strict";
var o = {
p: 1,
p: 2
}; // 语法错误（2）函数不能有重名的参数
正常模式下，如果函数有多个重名的参数，可以用arguments[i]读取。严格模式下，这属于语法错误。
"use strict";
function f(a, a, b) { // 语法错误
return ;
}4.7 禁止八进制表示法
正常模式下，整数的第一位如果是0，表示这是八进制数，比如0100等于十进制的64。严格模式禁止这种表示法，整数第一位为0，将报错。
"use strict"; var n = 0100; // 语法错误
4.8 arguments对象的限制
arguments是函数的参数对象，严格模式对它的使用做了限制。
（1）不允许对arguments赋值
"use strict";
arguments++; // 语法错误
var obj = { set p(arguments) { } }; // 语法错误
try { } catch (arguments) { } // 语法错误
function arguments() { } // 语法错误
var f = new Function("arguments", "'use strict'; return 17;"); // 语法错误（2）arguments不再追踪参数的变化
function f(a) {
a = 2;
return [a, arguments[0]];
}
f(1); // 正常模式为[2,2]
function f(a) {
"use strict";
a = 2;
return [a, arguments[0]];
}
f(1); // 严格模式为[2,1]（3）禁止使用arguments.callee
这意味着，你无法在匿名函数内部调用自身了。
"use strict";
var f = function() { return arguments.callee; };
f(); // 报错4.9 函数必须声明在顶层
将来Javascript的新版本会引入"块级作用域"。为了与新版本接轨，严格模式只允许在全局作用域或函数作用域的顶层声明函数。也就是说，不允许在非函数的代码块内声明函数。
"use strict";
if (true) {
function f() { } // 语法错误
}
for (var i = 0; i < 5; i++) {
function f2() { } // 语法错误
}4.10 保留字
为了向将来Javascript的新版本过渡，严格模式新增了一些保留字：implements, interface, let, package, private, protected, public, static, yield。
使用这些词作为变量名将会报错。
function package(protected) { // 语法错误
"use strict";
var implements; // 语法错误
}此外，ECMAscript第五版本身还规定了另一些保留字（class, enum, export, extends, import, super），以及各大浏览器自行增加的const保留字，也是不能作为变量名的。
