repl: Prevent REPL crash when tab-completed with Proxy objects

[thefourtheye]

If the proxy objects don't have a valid hasOwnPropertyNames trap,
REPL crashes with a TypeError, as per the bug report
#2119

> var proxy = Proxy.create({ fix: function() { return {}; } });
undefined
> proxy.<tab>
TypeError: Proxy handler #<Object> has no 'getOwnPropertyNames' trap

This patch traps the error thrown and issues Error message.

I don't know how to write a test for this, as we need to

1. enable --harmony-proxies
2. do tab complete

I am not sure how to do both of them in the same test.

[evanlucas]

To force the flags, take a look at https://github.com/nodejs/io.js/blob/master/test/sequential/test-debug-args.js#L2

Can something else except proxy objects cause TypeError? That error check seems a bit too broad.

Also, I'm not sure adding an error message is useful. Maybe just silencing that particular error would be better.

[thefourtheye]

@evanlucas I tried that now and it doesn't work. This is the patch which I tried,

It still throws a ReferenceError for Proxy. Is there anything else I need to include?

@rlidwka We can tighten the error checking, but silencing it will not give a hint to the user. Will that be okay?

[evanlucas]

Did you still get the ReferenceError running it with python tools/test.py?

[thefourtheye]

@evanlucas Awesome, it works :-) Thanks for the help. I removed the error check as suggested by @rlidwka now.

[cjihrig]

Please use either the referenceErrors or completionCount variable here (see the rest of the test). This test is known to fail silently.

[thefourtheye]

@cjihrig Oh, why not common.mustCall then? That should work here, right? I think that would make the tests better, without explicitly counting.

[cjihrig]

That should work for the tests using completionCount.

[thefourtheye]

@cjihrig Can you PTAL at #2122? I PRed that idea.

[cjihrig]

This can no longer be merged.

[cjihrig]

Not a huge fan of just dropping errors, but it's also just REPL tab completion. LGTM

[thefourtheye]

@cjihrig Thanks for reviewing and notifying about the merge conflict :-)

I rebased and squashed the commits.

@rlidwka@evanlucas PTAL :-)

[evanlucas]

CI: https://jenkins-iojs.nodesource.com/job/iojs+any-pr+multi/139/

LGTM if CI is happy

[evanlucas]

Landed in 59f6b5d with a slightly modified commit message to conform to the collaborator guidelines. Thanks @thefourtheye!

[thefourtheye]

@evanlucas Thanks :-) Can we close the actual bug report now itself or we ll wait for the fix to be released?

[evanlucas]

Good call. I forgot about that. Done
