* SUMMARY: Test that interpreter can handle string literals exceeding 64K
* See http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=179068
*
* Test that the interpreter can handle string literals exceeding 64K limit.
* For that the script passes to eval() "str ='LONG_STRING_LITERAL';" where
* LONG_STRING_LITERAL is a string with 200K chars.
*
* Igor Bukanov explains the technique used below:

*
* The reason for eval is to test string literals like in 'a string literal
* with 100 000 characters...', Rhino deals fine with strings generated at
* run time where lengths > 64K. Without eval it would be necessary to have
* a test file excedding 64K which is not that polite for CVS and then a
* special treatment for the compiled mode in Rhino should be added.

*
* The concat is a replacement for eval("str='"+long_str+"';"), but as
* long_str is huge, this leads to constructing first a new string via
* "str='"+long_str and then another one via ("str='"+long_str) + "';"
* which takes time under JDK 1.1 on a something like StrongArm 200MHz.
* Calling concat makes less copies, that is why it is used in the
* duplicate function and this is faster then doing recursion like in the
* test case to test that 64K different string literals can be handled.
