Using Todo in code is bad practice. How we can solve this problem, what you think?

@evilebottnawi As I mention in the description of my pull request, I don't know how these errors should be handled. We could just log them ( console.log("no eval function available") ) or throw them ( throw new Error("no eval function available") ), so that they have to be handled outside of the script loader.

console.error('[Script Loader] EvalError: No eval function available')There was a problem hiding this comment.
@michael-ciniawsky it can be break execution there eval and execScript not allowed or forbidden (CSP). Maybe best output error than break execution?

So the try/catch is solely for errors within eval ?

@michael-ciniawsky I've updated my commit accordingly.

Pull Request (Notable Changes)
I've moved up the check for
evalbecause IE11 still has theexecScriptfunction, but throws an error when it's called.The added error handling allows us to gracefuly reject scripts with non compatible code (like ES6 syntax). It would be better if we could transpile with babel before evaluating, but I don't know how we could implement that. There's already a separate issue regarding this feature (See #40).
