It is a Syntax Error if ContainsUndefinedBreakTarget of StatementList with argument « » is true.
It is a Syntax Error if ContainsUndefinedContinueTarget of StatementList with arguments « » and « » is true.

16.1.2 Static Semantics: IsStrict

opt

If ScriptBody is present and the Directive Prologue of ScriptBody contains a Use Strict Directive, return true; otherwise, return false.

16.1.3 Runtime Semantics: Evaluation

[empty]

Return NormalCompletion(undefined).

16.1.4 Script Records

A Script Record encapsulates information about a script being evaluated. Each script record contains the fields listed in Table 39.

Field Name	Value Type	Meaning
`[[Realm]]`	Realm Record \| undefined	The realm within which this script was created. undefined if not yet assigned.
`[[Environment]]`	Environment Record \| undefined	The Environment Record containing the top level bindings for this script. This field is set when the script is instantiated.
`[[ECMAScriptCode]]`	a Parse Node	The result of parsing the source text of this script using Script as the goal symbol.
`[[HostDefined]]`	Any, default value is empty.	Field reserved for use by host environments that need to associate additional information with a script.

16.1.5 ParseScript ( `sourceText`, `realm`, `hostDefined` )

The abstract operation ParseScript takes arguments sourceText, realm, and hostDefined. It creates a Script Record based upon the result of parsing sourceText as a Script. It performs the following steps when called:

Assert: sourceText is an ECMAScript source text (see clause 11).
Let body be ParseText(sourceText, Script).
If body is a List of errors, return body.
Return Script Record { [[Realm]]: realm, [[Environment]]: undefined, [[ECMAScriptCode]]: body, [[HostDefined]]: hostDefined }.

Note

An implementation may parse script source text and analyse it for Early Error conditions prior to evaluation of ParseScript for that script source text. However, the reporting of any errors must be deferred until the point where this specification actually performs ParseScript upon that source text.

16.1.6 ScriptEvaluation ( `scriptRecord` )

The abstract operation ScriptEvaluation takes argument scriptRecord. It performs the following steps when called:

Let globalEnv be scriptRecord.[[Realm]].[[GlobalEnv]].
Let scriptContext be a new ECMAScript code execution context.
Set the Function of scriptContext to null.
Set the Realm of scriptContext to scriptRecord.[[Realm]].
Set the ScriptOrModule of scriptContext to scriptRecord.
Set the VariableEnvironment of scriptContext to globalEnv.
Set the LexicalEnvironment of scriptContext to globalEnv.
Suspend the currently running execution context.
Push scriptContext onto the execution context stack; scriptContext is now the running execution context.
Let scriptBody be scriptRecord.[[ECMAScriptCode]].
Let result be GlobalDeclarationInstantiation(scriptBody, globalEnv).
If result.[[Type]] is normal, then
1. Set result to the result of evaluating scriptBody.
If result.[[Type]] is normal and result.[[Value]] is empty, then
1. Set result to NormalCompletion(undefined).
Suspend scriptContext and remove it from the execution context stack.
Assert: The execution context stack is not empty.
Resume the context that is now on the top of the execution context stack as the running execution context.
Return Completion(result).

16.1.7 GlobalDeclarationInstantiation ( `script`, `env` )

Note 1

When an execution context is established for evaluating scripts, declarations are instantiated in the current global environment. Each global binding declared in the code is instantiated.

The abstract operation GlobalDeclarationInstantiation takes arguments script (a Parse Node for ScriptBody) and env (an Environment Record). script is the ScriptBody for which the execution context is being established. env is the global environment in which bindings are to be created. It performs the following steps when called:

Assert: env is a global Environment Record.
Let lexNames be the LexicallyDeclaredNames of script.
Let varNames be the VarDeclaredNames of script.
For each element name of lexNames, do
1. If env.HasVarDeclaration(name) is true, throw a SyntaxError exception.
2. If env.HasLexicalDeclaration(name) is true, throw a SyntaxError exception.
3. Let hasRestrictedGlobal be ? env.HasRestrictedGlobalProperty(name).
4. If hasRestrictedGlobal is true, throw a SyntaxError exception.
For each element name of varNames, do
1. If env.HasLexicalDeclaration(name) is true, throw a SyntaxError exception.
Let varDeclarations be the VarScopedDeclarations of script.
Let functionsToInitialize be a new empty List.
Let declaredFunctionNames be a new empty List.
For each element d of varDeclarations, in reverse List order, do
1. If d is neither a VariableDeclaration nor a ForBinding nor a BindingIdentifier, then
  1. Assert: d is either a FunctionDeclaration, a GeneratorDeclaration, an AsyncFunctionDeclaration, or an AsyncGeneratorDeclaration.
  2. NOTE: If there are multiple function declarations for the same name, the last declaration is used.
  3. Let fn be the sole element of the BoundNames of d.
  4. If fn is not an element of declaredFunctionNames, then
    1. Let fnDefinable be ? env.CanDeclareGlobalFunction(fn).
    2. If fnDefinable is false, throw a TypeError exception.
    3. Append fn to declaredFunctionNames.
    4. Insert d as the first element of functionsToInitialize.
Let declaredVarNames be a new empty List.
For each element d of varDeclarations, do
1. If d is a VariableDeclaration, a ForBinding, or a BindingIdentifier, then
  1. For each String vn of the BoundNames of d, do
    1. If vn is not an element of declaredFunctionNames, then
      1. Let vnDefinable be ? env.CanDeclareGlobalVar(vn).
      2. If vnDefinable is false, throw a TypeError exception.
      3. If vn is not an element of declaredVarNames, then
        Append vn to declaredVarNames.
NOTE: No abnormal terminations occur after this algorithm step if the global object is an ordinary object. However, if the global object is a Proxy exotic object it may exhibit behaviours that cause abnormal terminations in some of the following steps.
NOTE: Annex B.3.3.2 adds additional steps at this point.
Let lexDeclarations be the LexicallyScopedDeclarations of script.
For each element d of lexDeclarations, do
1. NOTE: Lexically declared names are only instantiated here but not initialized.
2. For each element dn of the BoundNames of d, do
  1. If IsConstantDeclaration of d is true, then
    1. Perform ? env.CreateImmutableBinding(dn, true).
  2. Else,
    1. Perform ? env.CreateMutableBinding(dn, false).
For each Parse Node f of functionsToInitialize, do
1. Let fn be the sole element of the BoundNames of f.
2. Let fo be InstantiateFunctionObject of f with argument env.
3. Perform ? env.CreateGlobalFunctionBinding(fn, fo, false).
For each String vn of declaredVarNames, do
1. Perform ? env.CreateGlobalVarBinding(vn, false).
Return NormalCompletion(empty).

Note 2

Early errors specified in 16.1.1 prevent name conflicts between function/var declarations and let/const/class declarations as well as redeclaration of let/const/class bindings for declaration contained within a single Script. However, such conflicts and redeclarations that span more than one Script are detected as runtime errors during GlobalDeclarationInstantiation. If any such errors are detected, no bindings are instantiated for the script. However, if the global object is defined using Proxy exotic objects then the runtime tests for conflicting declarations may be unreliable resulting in an abrupt completion and some global declarations not being instantiated. If this occurs, the code for the Script is not evaluated.

Unlike explicit var or function declarations, properties that are directly created on the global object result in global bindings that may be shadowed by let/const/class declarations.

ModuleBody

It is a Syntax Error if the LexicallyDeclaredNames of ModuleItemList contains any duplicate entries.
It is a Syntax Error if any element of the LexicallyDeclaredNames of ModuleItemList also occurs in the VarDeclaredNames of ModuleItemList.
It is a Syntax Error if the ExportedNames of ModuleItemList contains any duplicate entries.
It is a Syntax Error if any element of the ExportedBindings of ModuleItemList does not also occur in either the VarDeclaredNames of ModuleItemList, or the LexicallyDeclaredNames of ModuleItemList.
It is a Syntax Error if ModuleItemList Contains super.

It is a Syntax Error if ContainsUndefinedBreakTarget of ModuleItemList with argument « » is true.
It is a Syntax Error if ContainsUndefinedContinueTarget of ModuleItemList with arguments « » and « » is true.

Note

The duplicate ExportedNames rule implies that multiple export default ExportDeclaration items within a ModuleBody is a Syntax Error. Additional error conditions relating to conflicting or duplicate declarations are checked during module linking prior to evaluation of a Module. If any such errors are detected the Module is not evaluated.

16.2.1.2 Static Semantics: ImportedLocalNames ( `importEntries` )

The abstract operation ImportedLocalNames takes argument importEntries (a List of ImportEntry Records (see Table 45)). It creates a List of all of the local name bindings defined by importEntries. It performs the following steps when called:

Let localNames be a new empty List.
For each ImportEntry Record i of importEntries, do
1. Append i.[[LocalName]] to localNames.
Return localNames.

16.2.1.3 Static Semantics: ModuleRequests

16.2.1.4 Abstract Module Records

A Module Record encapsulates structural information about the imports and exports of a single module. This information is used to link the imports and exports of sets of connected modules. A Module Record includes four fields that are only used when evaluating a module.

For specification purposes Module Record values are values of the Record specification type and can be thought of as existing in a simple object-oriented hierarchy where Module Record is an abstract class with both abstract and concrete subclasses. This specification defines the abstract subclass named Cyclic Module Record and its concrete subclass named Source Text Module Record. Other specifications and implementations may define additional Module Record subclasses corresponding to alternative module definition facilities that they defined.

Module Record defines the fields listed in Table 40. All Module Definition subclasses include at least those fields. Module Record also defines the abstract method list in Table 41. All Module definition subclasses must provide concrete implementations of these abstract methods.

Field Name	Value Type	Meaning
`[[Realm]]`	Realm Record \| undefined	The Realm within which this module was created. undefined if not yet assigned.
`[[Environment]]`	module Environment Record \| undefined	The Environment Record containing the top level bindings for this module. This field is set when the module is linked.
`[[Namespace]]`	Object \| undefined	The Module Namespace Object (28.3) if one has been created for this module. Otherwise undefined.
`[[HostDefined]]`	Any, default value is undefined.	Field reserved for use by host environments that need to associate additional information with a module.

Method	Purpose
GetExportedNames([`exportStarSet`])	Return a list of all names that are either directly or indirectly exported from this module.
ResolveExport(`exportName` [, `resolveSet`])	Return the binding of a name exported by this module. Bindings are represented by a ResolvedBinding Record, of the form { `[[Module]]`: Module Record, `[[BindingName]]`: String }. If the export is a Module Namespace Object without a direct binding in any module, `[[BindingName]]` will be set to "namespace". Return null if the name cannot be resolved, or "ambiguous" if multiple bindings were found. Each time this operation is called with a specific `exportName`, `resolveSet` pair as arguments it must return the same result if it completes normally.
Link()	Prepare the module for evaluation by transitively resolving all module dependencies and creating a module Environment Record.
Evaluate()	If this module has already been evaluated successfully, return undefined; if it has already been evaluated unsuccessfully, throw the exception that was produced. Otherwise, transitively evaluate all module dependencies of this module and then evaluate this module. Link must have completed successfully prior to invoking this method.

16.2.1.5 Cyclic Module Records

A Cyclic Module Record is used to represent information about a module that can participate in dependency cycles with other modules that are subclasses of the Cyclic Module Record type. Module Records that are not subclasses of the Cyclic Module Record type must not participate in dependency cycles with Source Text Module Records.

In addition to the fields defined in Table 40 Cyclic Module Records have the additional fields listed in Table 42

Field Name	Value Type	Meaning
`[[Status]]`	unlinked \| linking \| linked \| evaluating \| evaluated	Initially unlinked. Transitions to linking, linked, evaluating, evaluated (in that order) as the module progresses throughout its lifecycle.
`[[EvaluationError]]`	An abrupt completion \| undefined	A completion of type throw representing the exception that occurred during evaluation. undefined if no exception occurred or if `[[Status]]` is not evaluated.
`[[DFSIndex]]`	Integer \| undefined	Auxiliary field used during Link and Evaluate only. If `[[Status]]` is linking or evaluating, this non-negative number records the point at which the module was first visited during the ongoing depth-first traversal of the dependency graph.
`[[DFSAncestorIndex]]`	Integer \| undefined	Auxiliary field used during Link and Evaluate only. If `[[Status]]` is linking or evaluating, this is either the module's own `[[DFSIndex]]` or that of an "earlier" module in the same strongly connected component.
`[[RequestedModules]]`	List of String	A List of all the ModuleSpecifier strings used by the module represented by this record to request the importation of a module. The List is source code occurrence ordered.

In addition to the methods defined in Table 41 Cyclic Module Records have the additional methods listed in Table 43

Method	Purpose
InitializeEnvironment()	Initialize the Environment Record of the module, including resolving all imported bindings, and create the module's execution context.
ExecuteModule()	Evaluate the module's code within its execution context.

16.2.1.5.1 Link ( ) Concrete Method

The Link concrete method of a Cyclic Module Record module takes no arguments. On success, Link transitions this module's [[Status]] from unlinked to linked. On failure, an exception is thrown and this module's [[Status]] remains unlinked. (Most of the work is done by the auxiliary function InnerModuleLinking.) It performs the following steps when called:

Assert: module.[[Status]] is not linking or evaluating.
Let stack be a new empty List.
Let result be InnerModuleLinking(module, stack, 0).
If result is an abrupt completion, then
1. For each Cyclic Module Record m of stack, do
  1. Assert: m.[[Status]] is linking.
  2. Set m.[[Status]] to unlinked.
  3. Set m.[[Environment]] to undefined.
  4. Set m.[[DFSIndex]] to undefined.
  5. Set m.[[DFSAncestorIndex]] to undefined.
2. Assert: module.[[Status]] is unlinked.
3. Return result.
Assert: module.[[Status]] is linked or evaluated.
Assert: stack is empty.
Return undefined.

16.2.1.5.1.1 InnerModuleLinking ( `module`, `stack`, `index` )

The abstract operation InnerModuleLinking takes arguments module (a Cyclic Module Record), stack, and index (a non-negative integer). It is used by Link to perform the actual linking process for module, as well as recursively on all other modules in the dependency graph. The stack and index parameters, as well as a module's [[DFSIndex]] and [[DFSAncestorIndex]] fields, keep track of the depth-first search (DFS) traversal. In particular, [[DFSAncestorIndex]] is used to discover strongly connected components (SCCs), such that all modules in an SCC transition to linked together. It performs the following steps when called:

If module is not a Cyclic Module Record, then
1. Perform ? module.Link().
2. Return index.
If module.[[Status]] is linking, linked, or evaluated, then
1. Return index.
Assert: module.[[Status]] is unlinked.
Set module.[[Status]] to linking.
Set module.[[DFSIndex]] to index.
Set module.[[DFSAncestorIndex]] to index.
Set index to index + 1.
Append module to stack.
For each String required of module.[[RequestedModules]], do
1. Let requiredModule be ? HostResolveImportedModule(module, required).
2. Set index to ? InnerModuleLinking(requiredModule, stack, index).
3. If requiredModule is a Cyclic Module Record, then
  1. Assert: requiredModule.[[Status]] is either linking, linked, or evaluated.
  2. Assert: requiredModule.[[Status]] is linking if and only if requiredModule is in stack.
  3. If requiredModule.[[Status]] is linking, then
    1. Set module.[[DFSAncestorIndex]] to min(module.[[DFSAncestorIndex]], requiredModule.[[DFSAncestorIndex]]).
Perform ? module.InitializeEnvironment().
Assert: module occurs exactly once in stack.
Assert: module.[[DFSAncestorIndex]] ≤ module.[[DFSIndex]].
If module.[[DFSAncestorIndex]] = module.[[DFSIndex]], then
1. Let done be false.
2. Repeat, while done is false,
  1. Let requiredModule be the last element in stack.
  2. Remove the last element of stack.
  3. Assert: requiredModule is a Cyclic Module Record.
  4. Set requiredModule.[[Status]] to linked.
  5. If requiredModule and module are the same Module Record, set done to true.
Return index.

16.2.1.5.2 Evaluate ( ) Concrete Method

The Evaluate concrete method of a Cyclic Module Record module takes no arguments. Evaluate transitions this module's [[Status]] from linked to evaluated. If execution results in an exception, that exception is recorded in the [[EvaluationError]] field and rethrown by future invocations of Evaluate. (Most of the work is done by the auxiliary function InnerModuleEvaluation.) It performs the following steps when called:

Assert: This call to Evaluate is not happening at the same time as another call to Evaluate within the surrounding agent.
Assert: module.[[Status]] is linked or evaluated.
Let stack be a new empty List.
Let result be InnerModuleEvaluation(module, stack, 0).
If result is an abrupt completion, then
1. For each Cyclic Module Record m of stack, do
  1. Assert: m.[[Status]] is evaluating.
  2. Set m.[[Status]] to evaluated.
  3. Set m.[[EvaluationError]] to result.
2. Assert: module.[[Status]] is evaluated and module.[[EvaluationError]] is result.
3. Return result.
Assert: module.[[Status]] is evaluated and module.[[EvaluationError]] is undefined.
Assert: stack is empty.
Return undefined.

16.2.1.5.2.1 InnerModuleEvaluation ( `module`, `stack`, `index` )

The abstract operation InnerModuleEvaluation takes arguments module (a Module Record), stack, and index (a non-negative integer). It is used by Evaluate to perform the actual evaluation process for module, as well as recursively on all other modules in the dependency graph. The stack and index parameters, as well as module's [[DFSIndex]] and [[DFSAncestorIndex]] fields, are used the same way as in InnerModuleLinking. It performs the following steps when called:

If module is not a Cyclic Module Record, then
1. Perform ? module.Evaluate().
2. Return index.
If module.[[Status]] is evaluated, then
1. If module.[[EvaluationError]] is undefined, return index.
2. Otherwise, return module.[[EvaluationError]].
If module.[[Status]] is evaluating, return index.
Assert: module.[[Status]] is linked.
Set module.[[Status]] to evaluating.
Set module.[[DFSIndex]] to index.
Set module.[[DFSAncestorIndex]] to index.
Set index to index + 1.
Append module to stack.
For each String required of module.[[RequestedModules]], do
1. Let requiredModule be ! HostResolveImportedModule(module, required).
2. NOTE: Link must be completed successfully prior to invoking this method, so every requested module is guaranteed to resolve successfully.
3. Set index to ? InnerModuleEvaluation(requiredModule, stack, index).
4. If requiredModule is a Cyclic Module Record, then
  1. Assert: requiredModule.[[Status]] is either evaluating or evaluated.
  2. Assert: requiredModule.[[Status]] is evaluating if and only if requiredModule is in stack.
  3. If requiredModule.[[Status]] is evaluating, then
    1. Set module.[[DFSAncestorIndex]] to min(module.[[DFSAncestorIndex]], requiredModule.[[DFSAncestorIndex]]).
Perform ? module.ExecuteModule().
Assert: module occurs exactly once in stack.
Assert: module.[[DFSAncestorIndex]] ≤ module.[[DFSIndex]].
If module.[[DFSAncestorIndex]] = module.[[DFSIndex]], then
1. Let done be false.
2. Repeat, while done is false,
  1. Let requiredModule be the last element in stack.
  2. Remove the last element of stack.
  3. Assert: requiredModule is a Cyclic Module Record.
  4. Set requiredModule.[[Status]] to evaluated.
  5. If requiredModule and module are the same Module Record, set done to true.
Return index.

16.2.1.5.3 Example Cyclic Module Record Graphs

This non-normative section gives a series of examples of the linking and evaluation of a few common module graphs, with a specific focus on how errors can occur.

First consider the following simple module graph:

A module graph in which module A depends on module B, and module B depends on module C

Let's first assume that there are no error conditions. When a host first calls A.Link(), this will complete successfully by assumption, and recursively link modules B and C as well, such that A.[[Status]] = B.[[Status]] = C.[[Status]] = linked. This preparatory step can be performed at any time. Later, when the host is ready to incur any possible side effects of the modules, it can call A.Evaluate(), which will complete successfully (again by assumption), recursively having evaluated first C and then B. Each module's [[Status]] at this point will be evaluated.

Consider then cases involving linking errors. If InnerModuleLinking of C succeeds but, thereafter, fails for B, for example because it imports something that C does not provide, then the original A.Link() will fail, and both A and B's [[Status]] remain unlinked. C's [[Status]] has become linked, though.

Finally, consider a case involving evaluation errors. If InnerModuleEvaluation of C succeeds but, thereafter, fails for B, for example because B contains code that throws an exception, then the original A.Evaluate() will fail. The resulting exception will be recorded in both A and B's [[EvaluationError]] fields, and their [[Status]] will become evaluated. C will also become evaluated but, in contrast to A and B, will remain without an [[EvaluationError]], as it successfully completed evaluation. Storing the exception ensures that any time a host tries to reuse A or B by calling their Evaluate() method, it will encounter the same exception. (Hosts are not required to reuse Cyclic Module Records; similarly, hosts are not required to expose the exception objects thrown by these methods. However, the specification enables such uses.)

The difference here between linking and evaluation errors is due to how evaluation must be only performed once, as it can cause side effects; it is thus important to remember whether evaluation has already been performed, even if unsuccessfully. (In the error case, it makes sense to also remember the exception because otherwise subsequent Evaluate() calls would have to synthesize a new one.) Linking, on the other hand, is side-effect-free, and thus even if it fails, it can be retried at a later time with no issues.

Now consider a different type of error condition:

A module graph in which module A depends on a missing (unresolvable) module, represented by ???

In this scenario, module A declares a dependency on some other module, but no Module Record exists for that module, i.e. HostResolveImportedModule throws an exception when asked for it. This could occur for a variety of reasons, such as the corresponding resource not existing, or the resource existing but ParseModule throwing an exception when trying to parse the resulting source text. Hosts can choose to expose the cause of failure via the exception they throw from HostResolveImportedModule. In any case, this exception causes a linking failure, which as before results in A's [[Status]] remaining unlinked.

Lastly, consider a module graph with a cycle:

A module graph in which module A depends on module B and C, but module B also depends on module A

Here we assume that the entry point is module A, so that the host proceeds by calling A.Link(), which performs InnerModuleLinking on A. This in turn calls InnerModuleLinking on B. Because of the cycle, this again triggers InnerModuleLinking on A, but at this point it is a no-op since A.[[Status]] is already linking. B.[[Status]] itself remains linking when control gets back to A and InnerModuleLinking is triggered on C. After this returns with C.[[Status]] being linked, both A and B transition from linking to linked together; this is by design, since they form a strongly connected component.

An analogous story occurs for the evaluation phase of a cyclic module graph, in the success case.

Now consider a case where A has an linking error; for example, it tries to import a binding from C that does not exist. In that case, the above steps still occur, including the early return from the second call to InnerModuleLinking on A. However, once we unwind back to the original InnerModuleLinking on A, it fails during InitializeEnvironment, namely right after C.ResolveExport(). The thrown SyntaxError exception propagates up to A.Link, which resets all modules that are currently on its stack (these are always exactly the modules that are still linking). Hence both A and B become unlinked. Note that C is left as linked.

Finally, consider a case where A has an evaluation error; for example, its source code throws an exception. In that case, the evaluation-time analog of the above steps still occurs, including the early return from the second call to InnerModuleEvaluation on A. However, once we unwind back to the original InnerModuleEvaluation on A, it fails by assumption. The exception thrown propagates up to A.Evaluate(), which records the error in all modules that are currently on its stack (i.e., the modules that are still evaluating). Hence both A and B become evaluated and the exception is recorded in both A and B's [[EvaluationError]] fields, while C is left as evaluated with no [[EvaluationError]].

16.2.1.6 Source Text Module Records

A Source Text Module Record is used to represent information about a module that was defined from ECMAScript source text (11) that was parsed using the goal symbol Module. Its fields contain digested information about the names that are imported by the module and its concrete methods use this digest to link, link, and evaluate the module.

A Source Text Module Record can exist in a module graph with other subclasses of the abstract Module Record type, and can participate in cycles with other subclasses of the Cyclic Module Record type.

In addition to the fields defined in Table 42, Source Text Module Records have the additional fields listed in Table 44. Each of these fields is initially set in ParseModule.

Field Name	Value Type	Meaning
`[[ECMAScriptCode]]`	a Parse Node	The result of parsing the source text of this module using Module as the goal symbol.
`[[Context]]`	An ECMAScript execution context.	The execution context associated with this module.
`[[ImportMeta]]`	Object	An object exposed through the `import.meta` meta property. It is empty until it is accessed by ECMAScript code.
`[[ImportEntries]]`	List of ImportEntry Records	A List of ImportEntry records derived from the code of this module.
`[[LocalExportEntries]]`	List of ExportEntry Records	A List of ExportEntry records derived from the code of this module that correspond to declarations that occur within the module.
`[[IndirectExportEntries]]`	List of ExportEntry Records	A List of ExportEntry records derived from the code of this module that correspond to reexported imports that occur within the module or exports from `export * as namespace` declarations.
`[[StarExportEntries]]`	List of ExportEntry Records	A List of ExportEntry records derived from the code of this module that correspond to `export ` declarations that occur within the module, not including `export as namespace` declarations.

An ImportEntry Record is a Record that digests information about a single declarative import. Each ImportEntry Record has the fields defined in Table 45:

Field Name	Value Type	Meaning
`[[ModuleRequest]]`	String	String value of the ModuleSpecifier of the ImportDeclaration.
`[[ImportName]]`	String	The name under which the desired binding is exported by the module identified by `[[ModuleRequest]]`. The value "*" indicates that the import request is for the target module's namespace object.
`[[LocalName]]`	String	The name that is used to locally access the imported value from within the importing module.

Note 1

Table 46 gives examples of ImportEntry records fields used to represent the syntactic import forms:

Import Statement Form	`[[ModuleRequest]]`	`[[ImportName]]`	`[[LocalName]]`
`import v from "mod";`	"mod"	"default"	"v"
`import * as ns from "mod";`	"mod"	"*"	"ns"
`import {x} from "mod";`	"mod"	"x"	"x"
`import {x as v} from "mod";`	"mod"	"x"	"v"
`import "mod";`	An ImportEntry Record is not created.

An ExportEntry Record is a Record that digests information about a single declarative export. Each ExportEntry Record has the fields defined in Table 47:

Field Name	Value Type	Meaning
`[[ExportName]]`	String \| null	The name used to export this binding by this module.
`[[ModuleRequest]]`	String \| null	The String value of the ModuleSpecifier of the ExportDeclaration. null if the ExportDeclaration does not have a ModuleSpecifier.
`[[ImportName]]`	String \| null	The name under which the desired binding is exported by the module identified by `[[ModuleRequest]]`. null if the ExportDeclaration does not have a ModuleSpecifier. "*" indicates that the export request is for all exported bindings.
`[[LocalName]]`	String \| null	The name that is used to locally access the exported value from within the importing module. null if the exported value is not locally accessible from within the module.

Note 2

Table 48 gives examples of the ExportEntry record fields used to represent the syntactic export forms:

Export Statement Form	`[[ExportName]]`	`[[ModuleRequest]]`	`[[ImportName]]`	`[[LocalName]]`
`export var v;`	"v"	null	null	"v"
`export default function f() {}`	"default"	null	null	"f"
`export default function () {}`	"default"	null	null	"default"
`export default 42;`	"default"	null	null	"default"
`export {x};`	"x"	null	null	"x"

The following definitions specify the required concrete methods and other abstract operations for Source Text Module Records

16.2.1.6.1 ParseModule ( `sourceText`, `realm`, `hostDefined` )

The abstract operation ParseModule takes arguments sourceText (ECMAScript source text), realm, and hostDefined. It creates a Source Text Module Record based upon the result of parsing sourceText as a Module. It performs the following steps when called:

Assert: sourceText is an ECMAScript source text (see clause 11).
Let body be ParseText(sourceText, Module).
If body is a List of errors, return body.
Let requestedModules be the ModuleRequests of body.
Let importEntries be ImportEntries of body.
Let importedBoundNames be ImportedLocalNames(importEntries).
Let indirectExportEntries be a new empty List.
Let localExportEntries be a new empty List.
Let starExportEntries be a new empty List.
Let exportEntries be ExportEntries of body.
For each ExportEntry Record ee of exportEntries, do
1. If ee.[[ModuleRequest]] is null, then
  1. If ee.[[LocalName]] is not an element of importedBoundNames, then
    1. Append ee to localExportEntries.
  2. Else,
    1. Let ie be the element of importEntries whose [[LocalName]] is the same as ee.[[LocalName]].
    2. If ie.[[ImportName]] is "*", then
      1. NOTE: This is a re-export of an imported module namespace object.
      2. Append ee to localExportEntries.
    3. Else,
      1. NOTE: This is a re-export of a single name.
      2. Append the ExportEntry Record { [[ModuleRequest]]: ie.[[ModuleRequest]], [[ImportName]]: ie.[[ImportName]], [[LocalName]]: null, [[ExportName]]: ee.[[ExportName]] } to indirectExportEntries.
2. Else if ee.[[ImportName]] is "*" and ee.[[ExportName]] is null, then
  1. Append ee to starExportEntries.
3. Else,
  1. Append ee to indirectExportEntries.
Return Source Text Module Record { [[Realm]]: realm, [[Environment]]: undefined, [[Namespace]]: undefined, [[Status]]: unlinked, [[EvaluationError]]: undefined, [[HostDefined]]: hostDefined, [[ECMAScriptCode]]: body, [[Context]]: empty, [[ImportMeta]]: empty, [[RequestedModules]]: requestedModules, [[ImportEntries]]: importEntries, [[LocalExportEntries]]: localExportEntries, [[IndirectExportEntries]]: indirectExportEntries, [[StarExportEntries]]: starExportEntries, [[DFSIndex]]: undefined, [[DFSAncestorIndex]]: undefined }.

Note

An implementation may parse module source text and analyse it for Early Error conditions prior to the evaluation of ParseModule for that module source text. However, the reporting of any errors must be deferred until the point where this specification actually performs ParseModule upon that source text.

16.2.1.6.2 GetExportedNames ( [ `exportStarSet` ] ) Concrete Method

The GetExportedNames concrete method of a Source Text Module Record module takes optional argument exportStarSet. It performs the following steps when called:

If exportStarSet is not present, set exportStarSet to a new empty List.
Assert: exportStarSet is a List of Source Text Module Records.
If exportStarSet contains module, then
1. Assert: We've reached the starting point of an export * circularity.
2. Return a new empty List.
Append module to exportStarSet.
Let exportedNames be a new empty List.
For each ExportEntry Record e of module.[[LocalExportEntries]], do
1. Assert: module provides the direct binding for this export.
2. Append e.[[ExportName]] to exportedNames.
For each ExportEntry Record e of module.[[IndirectExportEntries]], do
1. Assert: module imports a specific binding for this export.
2. Append e.[[ExportName]] to exportedNames.
For each ExportEntry Record e of module.[[StarExportEntries]], do
1. Let requestedModule be ? HostResolveImportedModule(module, e.[[ModuleRequest]]).
2. Let starNames be ? requestedModule.GetExportedNames(exportStarSet).
3. For each element n of starNames, do
  1. If SameValue(n, "default") is false, then
    1. If n is not an element of exportedNames, then
      1. Append n to exportedNames.
Return exportedNames.

Note

GetExportedNames does not filter out or throw an exception for names that have ambiguous star export bindings.

16.2.1.6.3 ResolveExport ( `exportName` [ , `resolveSet` ] ) Concrete Method

The ResolveExport concrete method of a Source Text Module Record module takes argument exportName (a String) and optional argument resolveSet.

ResolveExport attempts to resolve an imported binding to the actual defining module and local binding name. The defining module may be the module represented by the Module Record this method was invoked on or some other module that is imported by that module. The parameter resolveSet is used to detect unresolved circular import/export paths. If a pair consisting of specific Module Record and exportName is reached that is already in resolveSet, an import circularity has been encountered. Before recursively calling ResolveExport, a pair consisting of module and exportName is added to resolveSet.

If a defining module is found, a ResolvedBinding Record { [[Module]], [[BindingName]] } is returned. This record identifies the resolved binding of the originally requested export, unless this is the export of a namespace with no local binding. In this case, [[BindingName]] will be set to "*namespace*". If no definition was found or the request is found to be circular, null is returned. If the request is found to be ambiguous, the string "ambiguous" is returned.

This concrete method performs the following steps when called:

If resolveSet is not present, set resolveSet to a new empty List.
Assert: resolveSet is a List of Record { [[Module]], [[ExportName]] }.
For each Record { [[Module]], [[ExportName]] } r of resolveSet, do
1. If module and r.[[Module]] are the same Module Record and SameValue(exportName, r.[[ExportName]]) is true, then
  1. Assert: This is a circular import request.
  2. Return null.
Append the Record { [[Module]]: module, [[ExportName]]: exportName } to resolveSet.
For each ExportEntry Record e of module.[[LocalExportEntries]], do
1. If SameValue(exportName, e.[[ExportName]]) is true, then
  1. Assert: module provides the direct binding for this export.
  2. Return ResolvedBinding Record { [[Module]]: module, [[BindingName]]: e.[[LocalName]] }.
For each ExportEntry Record e of module.[[IndirectExportEntries]], do
1. If SameValue(exportName, e.[[ExportName]]) is true, then
  1. Let importedModule be ? HostResolveImportedModule(module, e.[[ModuleRequest]]).
  2. If e.[[ImportName]] is "*", then
    1. Assert: module does not provide the direct binding for this export.
    2. Return ResolvedBinding Record { [[Module]]: importedModule, [[BindingName]]: "*namespace*" }.
  3. Else,
    1. Assert: module imports a specific binding for this export.
    2. Return importedModule.ResolveExport(e.[[ImportName]], resolveSet).
If SameValue(exportName, "default") is true, then
1. Assert: A default export was not explicitly defined by this module.
2. Return null.
3. NOTE: A default export cannot be provided by an export * or export * from "mod" declaration.
Let starResolution be null.
For each ExportEntry Record e of module.[[StarExportEntries]], do
1. Let importedModule be ? HostResolveImportedModule(module, e.[[ModuleRequest]]).
2. Let resolution be ? importedModule.ResolveExport(exportName, resolveSet).
3. If resolution is "ambiguous", return "ambiguous".
4. If resolution is not null, then
  1. Assert: resolution is a ResolvedBinding Record.
  2. If starResolution is null, set starResolution to resolution.
  3. Else,
    1. Assert: There is more than one * import that includes the requested name.
    2. If resolution.[[Module]] and starResolution.[[Module]] are not the same Module Record or SameValue(resolution.[[BindingName]], starResolution.[[BindingName]]) is false, return "ambiguous".
Return starResolution.

16.2.1.6.4 InitializeEnvironment ( ) Concrete Method

The InitializeEnvironment concrete method of a Source Text Module Record module takes no arguments. It performs the following steps when called:

For each ExportEntry Record e of module.[[IndirectExportEntries]], do
1. Let resolution be ? module.ResolveExport(e.[[ExportName]]).
2. If resolution is null or "ambiguous", throw a SyntaxError exception.
3. Assert: resolution is a ResolvedBinding Record.
Assert: All named exports from module are resolvable.
Let realm be module.[[Realm]].
Assert: realm is not undefined.
Let env be NewModuleEnvironment(realm.[[GlobalEnv]]).
Set module.[[Environment]] to env.
For each ImportEntry Record in of module.[[ImportEntries]], do
1. Let importedModule be ! HostResolveImportedModule(module, in.[[ModuleRequest]]).
2. NOTE: The above call cannot fail because imported module requests are a subset of module.[[RequestedModules]], and these have been resolved earlier in this algorithm.
3. If in.[[ImportName]] is "*", then
  1. Let namespace be ? GetModuleNamespace(importedModule).
  2. Perform ! env.CreateImmutableBinding(in.[[LocalName]], true).
  3. Call env.InitializeBinding(in.[[LocalName]], namespace).
4. Else,
  1. Let resolution be ? importedModule.ResolveExport(in.[[ImportName]]).
  2. If resolution is null or "ambiguous", throw a SyntaxError exception.
  3. If resolution.[[BindingName]] is "*namespace*", then
    1. Let namespace be ? GetModuleNamespace(resolution.[[Module]]).
    2. Perform ! env.CreateImmutableBinding(in.[[LocalName]], true).
    3. Call env.InitializeBinding(in.[[LocalName]], namespace).
  4. Else,
    1. Call env.CreateImportBinding(in.[[LocalName]], resolution.[[Module]], resolution.[[BindingName]]).
Let moduleContext be a new ECMAScript code execution context.
Set the Function of moduleContext to null.
Assert: module.[[Realm]] is not undefined.
Set the Realm of moduleContext to module.[[Realm]].
Set the ScriptOrModule of moduleContext to module.
Set the VariableEnvironment of moduleContext to module.[[Environment]].
Set the LexicalEnvironment of moduleContext to module.[[Environment]].
Set module.[[Context]] to moduleContext.
Push moduleContext onto the execution context stack; moduleContext is now the running execution context.
Let code be module.[[ECMAScriptCode]].
Let varDeclarations be the VarScopedDeclarations of code.
Let declaredVarNames be a new empty List.
For each element d of varDeclarations, do
1. For each element dn of the BoundNames of d, do
  1. If dn is not an element of declaredVarNames, then
    1. Perform ! env.CreateMutableBinding(dn, false).
    2. Call env.InitializeBinding(dn, undefined).
    3. Append dn to declaredVarNames.
Let lexDeclarations be the LexicallyScopedDeclarations of code.
For each element d of lexDeclarations, do
1. For each element dn of the BoundNames of d, do
  1. If IsConstantDeclaration of d is true, then
    1. Perform ! env.CreateImmutableBinding(dn, true).
  2. Else,
    1. Perform ! env.CreateMutableBinding(dn, false).
  3. If d is a FunctionDeclaration, a GeneratorDeclaration, an AsyncFunctionDeclaration, or an AsyncGeneratorDeclaration, then
    1. Let fo be InstantiateFunctionObject of d with argument env.
    2. Call env.InitializeBinding(dn, fo).
Remove moduleContext from the execution context stack.
Return NormalCompletion(empty).

16.2.1.6.5 ExecuteModule ( ) Concrete Method

The ExecuteModule concrete method of a Source Text Module Record module takes no arguments. It performs the following steps when called:

Suspend the currently running execution context.
Let moduleContext be module.[[Context]].
Push moduleContext onto the execution context stack; moduleContext is now the running execution context.
Let result be the result of evaluating module.[[ECMAScriptCode]].
Suspend moduleContext and remove it from the execution context stack.
Resume the context that is now on the top of the execution context stack as the running execution context.
Return Completion(result).

16.2.1.7 HostResolveImportedModule ( `referencingScriptOrModule`, `specifier` )

The host-defined abstract operation HostResolveImportedModule takes arguments referencingScriptOrModule (a Script Record or Module Record or null) and specifier (a ModuleSpecifier String). It provides the concrete Module Record subclass instance that corresponds to specifier occurring within the context of the script or module represented by referencingScriptOrModule. referencingScriptOrModule may be null if the resolution is being performed in the context of an import() expression and there is no active script or module at that time.

Note

An example of when referencingScriptOrModule can be null is in a web browser host. There, if a user clicks on a control given by

<button type="button" onclick="import('./foo.mjs')">Click me</button>

there will be no active script or module at the time the import() expression runs. More generally, this can happen in any situation where the host pushes execution contexts with null ScriptOrModule components onto the execution context stack.

The implementation of HostResolveImportedModule must conform to the following requirements:

The normal return value must be an instance of a concrete subclass of Module Record.
If a Module Record corresponding to the pair referencingScriptOrModule, specifier does not exist or cannot be created, an exception must be thrown.
Each time this operation is called with a specific referencingScriptOrModule, specifier pair as arguments it must return the same Module Record instance if it completes normally.

Multiple different referencingScriptOrModule, specifier pairs may map to the same Module Record instance. The actual mapping semantic is host-defined but typically a normalization process is applied to specifier as part of the mapping process. A typical normalization process would include actions such as alphabetic case folding and expansion of relative and abbreviated path specifiers.

16.2.1.8 HostImportModuleDynamically ( `referencingScriptOrModule`, `specifier`, `promiseCapability` )

The host-defined abstract operation HostImportModuleDynamically takes arguments referencingScriptOrModule (a Script Record or Module Record or null), specifier (a ModuleSpecifier String), and promiseCapability (a PromiseCapability Record). It performs any necessary setup work in order to make available the module corresponding to specifier occurring within the context of the script or module represented by referencingScriptOrModule. referencingScriptOrModule may be null if there is no active script or module when the import() expression occurs. It then performs FinishDynamicImport to finish the dynamic import process.

The implementation of HostImportModuleDynamically must conform to the following requirements:

The abstract operation must always complete normally with undefined. Success or failure must instead be signaled as discussed below.
The host environment must conform to one of the two following sets of requirements:
Success path
- At some future time, the host environment must perform FinishDynamicImport(referencingScriptOrModule, specifier, promiseCapability, NormalCompletion(undefined)).
- Any subsequent call to HostResolveImportedModule after FinishDynamicImport has completed, given the arguments referencingScriptOrModule and specifier, must complete normally.
- The completion value of any subsequent call to HostResolveImportedModule after FinishDynamicImport has completed, given the arguments referencingScriptOrModule and specifier, must be a module which has already been evaluated, i.e. whose Evaluate concrete method has already been called and returned a normal completion.
Failure path
- At some future time, the host environment must perform FinishDynamicImport(referencingScriptOrModule, specifier, promiseCapability, an abrupt completion), with the abrupt completion representing the cause of failure.
If the host environment takes the success path once for a given referencingScriptOrModule, specifier pair, it must always do so for subsequent calls.
The operation must not call promiseCapability.[[Resolve]] or promiseCapability.[[Reject]], but instead must treat promiseCapability as an opaque identifying value to be passed through to FinishDynamicImport.

The actual process performed is host-defined, but typically consists of performing whatever I/O operations are necessary to allow HostResolveImportedModule to synchronously retrieve the appropriate Module Record, and then calling its Evaluate concrete method. This might require performing similar normalization as HostResolveImportedModule does.

16.2.1.9 FinishDynamicImport ( `referencingScriptOrModule`, `specifier`, `promiseCapability`, `completion` )

The abstract operation FinishDynamicImport takes arguments referencingScriptOrModule, specifier, promiseCapability (a PromiseCapability Record), and completion. FinishDynamicImport completes the process of a dynamic import originally started by an import() call, resolving or rejecting the promise returned by that call as appropriate according to completion. It is performed by host environments as part of HostImportModuleDynamically. It performs the following steps when called:

If completion is an abrupt completion, perform ! Call(promiseCapability.[[Reject]], undefined, « completion.[[Value]] »).
Else,
1. Assert: completion is a normal completion and completion.[[Value]] is undefined.
2. Let moduleRecord be ! HostResolveImportedModule(referencingScriptOrModule, specifier).
3. Assert: Evaluate has already been invoked on moduleRecord and successfully completed.
4. Let namespace be GetModuleNamespace(moduleRecord).
5. If namespace is an abrupt completion, perform ! Call(promiseCapability.[[Reject]], undefined, « namespace.[[Value]] »).
6. Else, perform ! Call(promiseCapability.[[Resolve]], undefined, « namespace.[[Value]] »).

16.2.1.10 GetModuleNamespace ( `module` )

The abstract operation GetModuleNamespace takes argument module. It retrieves the Module Namespace Object representing module's exports, lazily creating it the first time it was requested, and storing it in module.[[Namespace]] for future retrieval. It performs the following steps when called:

Assert: module is an instance of a concrete subclass of Module Record.
Assert: If module is a Cyclic Module Record, then module.[[Status]] is not unlinked.
Let namespace be module.[[Namespace]].
If namespace is undefined, then
1. Let exportedNames be ? module.GetExportedNames().
2. Let unambiguousNames be a new empty List.
3. For each element name of exportedNames, do
  1. Let resolution be ? module.ResolveExport(name).
  2. If resolution is a ResolvedBinding Record, append name to unambiguousNames.
4. Set namespace to ModuleNamespaceCreate(module, unambiguousNames).
Return namespace.

Note

The only way GetModuleNamespace can throw is via one of the triggered HostResolveImportedModule calls. Unresolvable names are simply excluded from the namespace at this point. They will lead to a real linking error later unless they are all ambiguous star exports that are not explicitly requested anywhere.
