// To implement a web-compatible browser, it is often necessary to obtain the
// global object that is "associated" with the currently-running code. This
// process is made more complicated by the fact that, historically, different
// algorithms have operated with different definitions of the "associated"
// global.
//
// HTML5 formalizes this into two concepts: the "incumbent global" and the
// "entry global". The incumbent global corresponds to the global of the
// current script being executed, whereas the entry global corresponds to the
// global of the script where the current JS execution began.
//
// There is also a potentially-distinct third global that is determined by the
// current compartment. This roughly corresponds with the notion of Realms in
// ECMAScript.
//
// Suppose some event triggers an event listener in window |A|, which invokes a
// scripted function in window |B|, which invokes the |window.location.href|
// setter in window |C|. The entry global would be |A|, the incumbent global
// would be |B|, and the current compartment would be that of |C|.
//
// In general, it's best to use to use the most-closely-associated global
// unless the spec says to do otherwise. In 95% of the cases, the global of
// the current compartment (GetCurrentGlobal()) is the right thing. For
// example, WebIDL constructors (new C.XMLHttpRequest()) are initialized with
// the global of the current compartment (i.e. |C|).
//
// The incumbent global is very similar, but differs in a few edge cases. For
// example, if window |B| does |C.location.href = "..."|, the incumbent global
// used for the navigation algorithm is B, because no script from |C| was ever
// run.
//
// The entry global is used for various things like computing base URIs, mostly
// for historical reasons.
//
// Note that all of these functions return bonafide global objects. This means
// that, for Windows, they always return the inner.

// Returns the global associated with the top-most Candidate Entry Point on
// the Script Settings Stack. See the HTML spec. This may be null.
nsIGlobalObject* GetEntryGlobal();

// If the entry global is a window, returns its extant document. Otherwise,
// returns null.
Document* GetEntryDocument();

// Returns the global associated with the top-most entry of the the Script
// Settings Stack. See the HTML spec. This may be null.
nsIGlobalObject* GetIncumbentGlobal();

// Returns the global associated with the current compartment. This may be null.
nsIGlobalObject* GetCurrentGlobal();

// JS-implemented WebIDL presents an interesting situation with respect to the
// subject principal. A regular C++-implemented API can simply examine the
// compartment of the most-recently-executed script, and use that to infer the
// responsible party. However, JS-implemented APIs are run with system
// principal, and thus clobber the subject principal of the script that
// invoked the API. So we have to do some extra work to keep track of this
// information.
//
// We therefore implement the following behavior:
// * Each Script Settings Object has an optional WebIDL Caller Principal field.
//   This defaults to null.
// * When we push an Entry Point in preparation to run a JS-implemented WebIDL
//   callback, we grab the subject principal at the time of invocation, and
//   store that as the WebIDL Caller Principal.
// * When non-null, callers can query this principal from script via an API on
//   Components.utils.

 * For any interaction with JSAPI, an AutoJSAPI (or one of its subclasses)
 * must be on the stack.
 *
 * This base class should be instantiated as-is when the caller wants to use
 * JSAPI but doesn't expect to run script. The caller must then call one of its
 * Init functions before being able to access the JSContext through cx().
 * Its current duties are as-follows (see individual Init comments for details):
 *
 * * Grabbing an appropriate JSContext, and, on the main thread, pushing it onto
 *   the JSContext stack.
 * * Entering an initial (possibly null) compartment, to ensure that the
 *   previously entered compartment for that JSContext is not used by mistake.
 * * Reporting any exceptions left on the JSRuntime, unless the caller steals
 *   or silences them.
 *
 * Additionally, the following duties are planned, but not yet implemented:
 *
 * * De-poisoning the JSRuntime to allow manipulation of JSAPI. This requires
 *   implementing the poisoning first.  For now, this de-poisoning
 *   effectively corresponds to having a non-null cx on the stack.
 *
 * In situations where the consumer expects to run script, AutoEntryScript
 * should be used, which does additional manipulation of the script settings
 * stack. In bug 991758, we'll add hard invariants to SpiderMonkey, such that
 * any attempt to run script without an AutoEntryScript on the stack will
 * fail. This prevents system code from accidentally triggering script
 * execution at inopportune moments via surreptitious getters and proxies.
