bug#8724: 23.2; js-mode imenu should be more thorough

[dino chiesa]

Module /emacs/lisp/progmodes/js.el
 
In js-mode, editing a short _javascript_ file, the imenu indexing works
nicely but the actual menu is incomplete, truncated. The defun
js--pitems-to-imenu seems to make an insufficient effort, when
nested function definitions are used in the source.
 
For example, supposing this js source:
 
  jQuery(document).ready(function () {
      var $th = jQuery('thead > tr > th');
      $th.each(function(column, elt) {
          jQuery(this).addClass('sortable').click(function() {
             ...
          });
      });
  });
 
(this is fairly typical with _javascript_)
 
In this case js-mode will index all of the anonymous functions, but will
produce an imenu that contains only the outer anonymous function. This is
done in js--pitems-to-imenu. Also, in the same defun, the imenu entry uses
"Unknown" as the name of the anonymous function.
 
I propose 2 things:
  - replace the name "unknown" with "Anonymous"
  - recurse into js--pitems-to-imenu for functions that define
    child functions.

The proposed new code for the defun is:
 
     (defun js--pitems-to-imenu (pitems unknown-ctr)
       "Convert list of pitems PITEMS to imenu format"
       (let (imenu-items pitem pitem-type pitem-name subitems)
         (while (setq pitem (pop pitems))
           (setq pitem-type (js--pitem-type pitem))
           (setq pitem-name (js--pitem-strname pitem))
           (when (eq pitem-name t)
             (setq pitem-name (format "Anonymous %s"
                                      (incf (car unknown-ctr)))))
           (cond
            ((memq pitem-type '(function macro))
             (assert (integerp (js--pitem-h-begin pitem)))
             ;; DPC check for children (nested fnc defns)
             (cond
              ((js--pitem-children pitem)
               (setq subitems (js--pitems-to-imenu
                               (js--pitem-children pitem)
                               unknown-ctr))
               (cond
                (subitems
                 ;; DPC index "top" and "bottom" of the enclosure
                 (push (cons "(top)"
                             (js--maybe-make-marker
                              (js--pitem-h-begin pitem)))
                       subitems)
                 (let ((b-end (js--pitem-b-end pitem)))
                   (if b-end
                       (setq subitems
                             (append subitems
                                     (list (cons "(bottom)"
                                                 (js--maybe-make-marker b-end)))
                                     subitems))))
                 (push (cons pitem-name subitems)
                       imenu-items))
                (t
                 (push (cons pitem-name
                             (js--maybe-make-marker
                              (js--pitem-h-begin pitem)))
                       imenu-items))))
              (t
               (push (cons pitem-name
                           (js--maybe-make-marker
                            (js--pitem-h-begin pitem)))
                     imenu-items))))
            ((consp pitem-type) ; class definition
             (setq subitems (js--pitems-to-imenu
                             (js--pitem-children pitem)
                             unknown-ctr))
             (cond (subitems
                    (push (cons pitem-name subitems)
                          imenu-items))
                   ((js--pitem-h-begin pitem)
                    (assert (integerp (js--pitem-h-begin pitem)))
                    (setq subitems (list
                                    (cons "[empty]"
                                          (js--maybe-make-marker
                                           (js--pitem-h-begin pitem)))))
                    (push (cons pitem-name subitems)
                          imenu-items))))
            (t (error "Unknown item type: %S" pitem-type))))
         imenu-items))
