Changes

• The let and const bindings in the global level have been made compliant with ES2015 semantics. See bug 589199 and the blog post "Breaking changes in let and const in Firefox Nightly 44". In addition, let is now available to default Web JavaScript (strict and non-strict) and does not require a version opt-in anymore (bug 932517).
• If typed arrays' (like Int8Array) and ArrayBuffer) constructors are called as a function without the new operator, a TypeError is now thrown as per the ES6 specification (bug 980945, bug 1214936).

Changes regarding the arguments object

• To match the ES2015 specification, arrow functions no longer have their own arguments object. The arguments object is now lexically bound (inherited from the outer function). In most cases, rest parameters are a good alternative (...args) => args[i], see bug 889158.
• The arguments object is now allowed in conjunction with rest parameters (bug 1133298).
• From now on, a mapped arguments object in non-strict functions is only provided if the function does not contain any rest parameters, any default parameters or any destructured parameters (bug 1175394).

Other changes

• As part of ES6 specification compliance, parenthesized destructuring patterns, like ([a, b]) = [1, 2] or ({a, b}) = { a: 1, b: 2 }, are now considered invalid and will throw a SyntaxError. See Jeff Walden's blog post for more details.
• The new.target syntax has been added (bug 1141865).

• Unreachable code after return statement (including unreachable expression after semicolon-less return statements) will now show a warning in the console (bug 1005110, bug 1151931).
• Symbol.match has been added (bug 1054755).
• Passing an object which has a property named Symbol.match with a truthy value to String.prototype.startsWith, String.prototype.endsWith, and String.prototype.contains now throws a TypeError (bug 1054755).

• If the DataView constructor is called as a function without the new operator, a TypeError is now thrown as per the ES6 specification.
• An issue regressed in Firefox 21, where proxyfied arrays without the get trap were not working properly, has been fixed. If the get trap in a Proxy was not defined, Array.length returned 0 and the set trap didn't get called. A workaround was to add the get trap even if was not necessary in your code. This issue has been fixed now (bug 895223).
• WeakMap.prototype and WeakSet.prototype have been updated to be just ordinary objects, per ES6 specification (bug 1055473).

• RegExp.prototype.source now returns "(?:)" instead of an empty string for empty regular expressions (bug 1130798).
• RegExp.prototype.source and RegExp.prototype.toString() now escape regular expression patterns properly (e.g. line terminators, "\n") (bug 1130860).
• The Regexp global, ignoreCase, multiline, and sticky properties are now prototype accessor properties rather than own data properties of RegExp instances (bug 1120169).
• The RegExp.prototype.source property is now prototype accessor property rather than own data property of RegExp instances (bug 1120169). Available only in non-Release version, due to bug 1150297.

The experimental implementation that had been enabled only on the Nightly channel, including the Array.prototype.mapPar, filterPar and reducePar methods, has been completely removed.

• The ECMAScript 6 Symbol data type has been enabled by default (was available in the Nightly channel since version 33) (bug 1066322):
  • Symbol
  • Symbol.for()
  • Symbol.keyFor()
  • Object.getOwnPropertySymbols()
• The old placeholder string "@@iterator" has been replaced with the real ES6 well-known symbol Symbol.iterator for the iterable interface property key (bug 918828).
• The spec-internal abstract operation ToNumber(string) now supports binary (0b) and octal (0o) literals, this is a potentially breaking change from ES5 (bug 1079120).
  • Number("0b11") now returns 3, not NaN.
  • "0o11" == 9 now returns true, not false.
• The const declaration is now block-scoped and requires an initializer (bug 611388). It also can not be redeclared anymore (bug 1095439).
  • {const a=1}; a; now throws a ReferenceError and does not return 1 anymore due to block-scoping.
  • const a; now throws a SyntaxError ("missing = in const declaration"): An initializer is required.
  • const a = 1; a = 2; now also throws a SyntaxError ("invalid assignment to const a").
• The ES7 method Array.prototype.includes has been implemented, but for now, it is only enabled in Nightly builds (bug 1069063).
• The delete operator now triggers the "temporal dead zone" when using with let and const (bug 1074571).

• WeakMap constructor now handles optional iterable argument (bug 1092537).

• The "temporal dead zone" for let declarations has been implemented. In conformance with ES6 let semantics, the following situations
  now throw errors. See also this newsgroup announcement and bug 1001090.
  • Redeclaring existing variables or arguments using let within the same scope in function bodies is now a syntax error.
  • Using a variable declared using let in function bodies before the declaration is reached and evaluated is now a runtime error.
• ES6 Symbols (only available in the Nightly channel) have been updated to conform with recent specification changes:
  • String(Symbol("1")) now no longer throws a TypeError; instead a string ("Symbol(1)") gets returned (bug 1058396).
• The various TypedArray constructors now have as their [[Prototype]] a single function, denoted %TypedArray%  in ES6 (but otherwise not directly exposed).  Each typed array prototype now inherits from %TypedArray%.prototype.  (%TypedArray% and %TypedArray%.prototype inherit from Function.prototype and Object.prototype, respectively, so that typed array constructors and instances still have the properties found on those objects.)  Typed array function properties now reside on %TypedArray%.prototype and work on any typed array.  See TypedArray and bug 896116 for more information.
• ES6 semantics for prototype mutations using object literals have been implemented (bug 1061853).
  • Now only a single member notated as __proto__:value will mutate the [[Prototype]] in the object literal syntax.
  • Method members like __proto__() {} will not overwrite the [[Prototype]] anymore.

• The ES6 syntax for computed property names on object literals has been implemented (bug 924688).
  • This includes getter and setter method names as well (bug 1048384) and can also be used with destructuring.

• A new ES6 object WeakSet has been added (bug 792439).
• ES6 Symbols (only available in the Nightly channel) have been updated to conform with recent specification changes (bug 1042602):
  • When trying to convert a symbol to a number, a TypeError will be thrown now.
  • When using loose equality, Object(sym) == sym returns true now.
• The experimental TypedArray.prototype.move() method (only available in former Nightly and Aurora channels) has been replaced with the now implemented standard ES6 TypedArray.prototype.copyWithin() method (bug 1021379).
• In strict mode, setting a duplicate property name in object literals will no longer throw a SyntaxError as per ES6 specification (bug 1041128).
• In regular expressions (including String.replace), the matched text for a capturing group is now undefined instead of the empty string when that capturing group didn't get consulted because quantifiers prevented its exercise (see bug 369778 and this example code). Note that due to web compatibility, RegExp.$N will still return an empty string (bug 1053944).
• The ES6 spread operator is now supported in destructuring (bug 933276).
• Destructuring now uses iterator protocol instead of array-like protocol (bug 933276).
• Proxy.revocable() has been implemented (bug 978279).

• The non-standard method Number.toInteger() has been removed (bug 1022396).
• The Map.prototype.set(), WeakMap.prototype.set() and Set.prototype.add() methods are now chainable, return their equivalent objects and no longer undefined (bug 1031632).
• A default parameter is evaluated before function declarations inside the function body, so those functions cannot be referred from default parameter (bug 1022962).
• Shorthand properties are now allowed in object literals: if not explicitly defined, property keys are initialized by variables of the same name. E.g. function f(x, y) { return {x, y}; } is equivalent to function f(x, y) { return {x: x, y: y}; } (bug 875002).
• The parsing of yield and yield* has been updated to conform with the latest ES6 specification (bug 981599).
• The non-standard hasOwn trap has been removed (bug 980565).

    • String.prototype.localeCompare()
    • Number.prototype.toLocaleString()
    • Date.prototype.toLocaleString()
    • Date.prototype.toLocaleDateString()

• Map and Set objects have changed from having a size() method to a size property (bug 807001)
• Map and Set objects also have a clear() method now. (bug 805003)

• Harmony's (ECMAScript 6) Direct Proxies have been landed (bug 703537). Warning: the implementation contains a couple of known bugs, missing features and misalignements with the current state of the spec. Do not rely on it for production code.
• The ECMAScript 6 contains() method is now implemented on strings. This is unfortunately not compatible with Mootools 1.2, which expects different behavior from contains() on strings but does not ensure it. Newer versions of Mootools fix this issue; sites should upgrade their Mootools version to something newer than 1.2.

• String object now offers Harmony startsWith, endsWith, and contains methods (bug 772733).
• The String methods link and anchor now escape the '"' (quotation mark) (bug 352437).
• Experimental support for strawman ParallelArray object has been implemented (bug 778559).
• Support to iterate Map/Set (bug 725909).
• Disabled E4X for web content by default (bug 778851).
• __exposedProps__ must now be set for Chrome JavaScript objects exposed to content. Attempts to access Chrome objects from content without __exposedProps__ set will fail silently (bug 553102).
• for..of loops now work in terms of .iterator() and .next() (bug 725907).

• Number objects now offer isFinite(), toInteger(), and isInteger() methods. (bug 761480, bug 761495)
• The Harmony spread operator is now supported in Array initializers (bug 574130). Note it is not yet supported in calls (bug 762363).
• The experimental TypedArray.prototype.move() method has been added (available in Aurora and Nightly channels only) (bug 730873).

• Support for the DataView interface from the Typed Arrays specification has been added. This provides low-level access to the data contained in an ArrayBuffer.
• Support for new ECMAScript 6 built-ins:  Number.isNaN(), Number.toInteger(), Number.isInteger(), Number.isFinite() has been added. (bug 749818, bug 761495, bug 761480).
• Support for ECMAScript 6 default parameters has been added. (bug 757676).
• Support for ECMAScript 6 rest parameters has been added. (bug 574132).

No change.

• Support for the ECMAScript 6 for..of construct has been added.
• Experimental support for ECMAScript 6 Map and Set objects has been implemented.

• Support for sharp variables (a Netscape non-standard extension) has been dropped.
• ArrayBuffer.prototype.slice() has been implemented.

No change.

• The method WeakMap.set() now returns undefined, instead of itself.
• A bug was introduced in regular expression handling in Firefox 7; this has been fixed. See bug 683838 if you want the gory details.
• You can no longer use E4X syntax while in ECMAScript 5 strict mode (that is, after "use strict;").

No change.

• RegExp.exec() and RegExp.test() called with no arguments now match against the string "undefined".
• String.search() and String.match() called with no arguments or undefined now match against the empty string and thus match every string.
• Support for watchlists has been implemented with the new (non-standard) watch() and unwatch() methods.

• The Function.arity property has been removed; use Function.length instead.

• In the past, it was possible to use the new operator on several built-in functions (eval, parseInt, Date.parse...) that should not have allowed it, according to the specification. This behavior is no longer supported. Using the new operator in this way was never officially supported and was not widely done, so it's unlikely that this change affects you.
• ECMAScript Harmony WeakMaps have been added as a prototype implementation.

• Regular expressions are no longer callable as if they were functions; this change has been made in concert with the WebKit team to ensure compatibility (see WebKit bug 28285. This feature had existed for a long time but was never documented (at least, not here on MDC).
• The Function.prototype.isGenerator() method is now supported; this lets you determine if a function is a generator.
• The following reserved words were previously only treated as reserved when in strict mode; now they're always treated as reserved: class, enum, export, extends, import, and super.
• DOM documents created in chrome code may no longer be exposed to sandboxed scripts.
• The JSON parser has been re-written for improved speed and compliance. This includes a fix for bug 572279.
