Paul Joseph Davis updated COUCHDB-925:
--------------------------------------

    Skill Level: Regular Contributors Level (Easy to Medium)

This is because the object sealing was broken in Spidermonkey 1.7 for Array objects. To fix this we need to do the research on whether that bug has been fixed in newer versions and if so add it back to couchjs.

Also, JS tests should be added to test for this behaviour so that when people run the Futon tests they know whether their JS engine is properly sealing objects.

>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-925
>             Project: CouchDB
>          Issue Type: Bug
>    Affects Versions: 1.0.1
>         Environment: Erlang R13B03, Spidermonkey 1.7, Ubuntu 10.04
>            Reporter: afters
>
> I have the following two map functions (v1.0.1):
> function (doc) {
>   emit(doc.path[0], null);
> }
> function (doc) {
>  doc.path = [ 'an intruder from another view' ];
> }
> When the views are built, the first map function sees a 'doc' variable that
> was changed by the second map function, and thus emits the key 'an intruder
> from another view'.
> The real documents remain untouched.
