[jira] [Commented] (COUCHDB-1362) couchjs doesn't clean out global namespace between views calls

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-1362?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13167235#comment-13167235 ] 

Paul Joseph Davis commented on COUCHDB-1362:
--------------------------------------------

What version of SpiderMonkey are you using?

In general I agree but I've never seen an efficient method not to mention a way to support it across all the SpiderMonkey versions we use.

> Sometimes a view can access the functions that were defined in a previous view.  This can lead a developer to think that function sharing has been implemented, but it's not reliable behaviour.  It would be better if the global namespace were cleared between map/reduce runs so that it's clear that there is no reliable way to share functions between views.
