Bug 176685 – Safari 10 /11 problem with if (!await get(something)).

• Component: JavaScriptCore
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

This code doesn't work in Safari (10 and 11, with Technology preview 39a), it blocks page rendering and says::

if(!await a(t, "myPromise").content) {
console.log('ByBye');
}

Of course if I remove await from my source code or check it like this:

if (myPromiseContent === 0) {

it works again.

But I can't use "!" with an await? Is it generally wrong? "eslint" doesn't warn me about this.

Am I wrong?

Could you please attach a complete reproducible test case?

Will look to this issue

I'm receiving error in following script:
```
(async () => { 
     var obj = { content: Promise.resolve('abc') }; 
     var a = !await obj.content; 
     console.log(a); 
})();
// SyntaxError: Unexpected identifier 'obj'. Expected ';' after variable declaration.
```
Work well if wraps await in parentheses:
```
(async () => { 
     var obj = { content: Promise.resolve('abc') }; 
     var a = !(await obj.content); 
     console.log(a); 
})();
```

Is this the grammar that is specified?

I think I'll update ChangeLog description to the link of the spec

> Is this the grammar that is specified?

This is how I understand Note 1 in https://tc39.github.io/ecma262/#sec-async-function-definitions:

```
AsyncFunctionBody:
          FunctionBody[~Yield, +Await]

AwaitExpression[Yield]:
          awaitUnaryExpression[?Yield, +Await]

Note 1
await is parsed as an AwaitExpression when the [Await] parameter is present. The [Await] parameter is present in the following contexts:
In an AsyncFunctionBody.
In the FormalParameters of an AsyncFunctionDeclaration and AsyncFunctionExpression. AwaitExpression in this position is a Syntax error via static semantics.
```
I hope this is  correct understanding of the spec.
