10.4 Establishing an Execution Context（执行环境建立 p57）

 

Evaluation of global code or code using the eval function (15.1.2.1) establishes and enters a new execution context. Every invocation of an ECMAScript code function (13.2.1) also establishes and enters a new execution context, even if a function is calling itself recursively. Every return exits an execution context. A thrown exception may also exit one or more execution contexts.
When control enters an execution context, the execution context’s ThisBinding is set, its VariableEnvironment and initial LexicalEnvironment are defined, and declaration binding instantiation (10.5) is performed. The exact manner in which these actions occur depend on the type of code being entered.
