Safari : Invalid regular expression, because of uglify compressing utf-8 characters #743
Description
What is wrong?
On Safari, MacOS, loading gpu.js causes an error :
SyntaxError: Invalid regular expression: range out of order in character class
Explanation
- acorn (dependency) uses utf-8 characters to compute a RegExp
- gpu.js uses uglify to minify sources to gpu-browser.min.js
- by default, uglify compress utf-8 characters. See here
- for some reason, Safari cannot evaluate the RegExp
Where does it happen?
It happen on Safari when loading gpu.js from https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/[email protected]
