B Additional Built-in Properties

When the ECMAScript host is a web browser the following additional properties of the standard built-in objects are defined.

B.1 Additional Properties of the Error.prototype Object

B.1.1 get Error.prototype.stack ( )

Error.prototype.stack is an accessor property whose get accessor function performs the following steps:

  1. Let E be the this value.
  2. If Type(E) is not Object, throw a TypeError exception.
  3. If E does not have an [[ErrorData]] internal slot, return undefined.
  4. Return ? GetStackString(error).

The value of the "name" property of this function is "get stack".

B.1.2 set Error.prototype.stack ( value )

Its set accessor function performs the following steps:

  1. Let E be the this value.
  2. If Type(E) is not Object, throw a TypeError exception.
  3. Let numberOfArgs be the number of arguments passed to this function call.
  4. If numberOfArgs is 0, throw a TypeError exception.
  5. Return ? CreateDataPropertyOrThrow(E, "stack", value).

The value of the "name" property of this function is "set stack".
