Ben Noordhuis 17fbdc18b8 lib: name EventEmitter prototype methods Before this commit the EventEmitter methods were anonymous functions. V8 tries to infer names for anonymous functions based on the execution context but it frequently gets it wrong and when that happens, the stack trace is usually confusing and unhelpful. This commit names all methods so V8 can fall back to the method.name property. The above gotcha applies to all anonymous functions but is exacerbated for EventEmitter methods because those are invoked with a plenitude of different receivers.

README.md

Evented I/O for V8 javascript.

To build:

Prerequisites (Unix only):

* GCC 4.2 or newer
* Python 2.6 or 2.7
* GNU Make 3.81 or newer
* libexecinfo (FreeBSD and OpenBSD only)

Unix/Macintosh:

./configure
make
make install

If your python binary is in a non-standard location or has a non-standard name, run the following instead:

export PYTHON=/path/to/python
$PYTHON ./configure
make
make install

Windows:

vcbuild.bat

You can download pre-built binaries for various operating systems from http://nodejs.org/download/. The Windows and OS X installers will prompt you for the location to install to. The tarballs are self-contained; you can extract them to a local directory with:

tar xzf /path/to/node-<version>-<platform>-<arch>.tar.gz

Or system-wide with:

cd /usr/local && tar --strip-components 1 -xzf \
                     /path/to/node-<version>-<platform>-<arch>.tar.gz

To run the tests:
