Please review JDK-8156714: Parsing issue with automatic semicolon insertion:
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~hannesw/8156714/webrev/
Comments are irrelevant for newline detection so we should ignore them
when assigning to AbstractParser.last.
Note that this causes three endPositions to change in
test/script/nosecurity/parserapi.js.EXPECTED. This is caused by the
parser API no longer including trailing comments to functions.
For example consider the following code (taken from parserapi.js itself,
this is the first changed endPosition):
function Parser() {
// create nashorn parser
this._parser = Parser.create();
}
// Java types used
Previously the endPosition of the Parser function would be the end of
the trailing comment. With this change, the function's endPosition is
before the trailing comment starts, which seems more correct.
