namespace JSC {

class JSCell;

// This class is used return data owned by a JSCell. Consider:
// int foo(JSString* jsString)
// {
//     String& string = jsString->value(globalObject);
//     // Do something that triggers a GC (e.g. any object allocation)
//     return string.length();
// }
// The C++ compiler is technically free to "drop" the last reference to jsString
// after we call value. Since our GC relies on live C++ values still existing on
// the stack when we trigger a GC we could collect jsString freeing string and
// causing a UAF. This class helps avoid that problem by forcing the C++ compiler
// to keep a reference to the owner GCed object of our data while being as
// unobtrusive as possible. That said there are a few caveats for callers:
//   1) **NEVER** do:
//          Data& data = foo->getData();
//      or:
//          Data* data = foo->getData();
//      this will **NOT** prevent the GC from collecting foo before data goes
//      out of scope.
//
//   2) The preferred way to call a function returning a GCOwnedDataScope is:
//          auto data = foo->getData();
//      this will ensure foo exists long enough prevent a GC before data goes
//      out of scope.
//
//
//   3) It's ok to bind to / return a retained value:
//          Data data = foo->getData();
//      or:
//          return foo->getData();
//      These aren't ideal as they trigger a retain and maybe release on data
//      but this can't be avoided in some cases.
