- Build error with clang on Mac OS X 10.15.7 (wasm-engine.cc:157:19: error: no viable overloaded '='): This issue involves a build error encountered when attempting to install Node.js version 22.1 on Mac OS X 10.15.7 using the Clang compiler. The error arises from a type mismatch in the
wasm-engine.ccfile, specifically at line 157, where there is no viable overloaded assignment operator for converting astd::unique_ptr<char[]>to astd::shared_ptr<const char[]>, leading to a failure in the build process. - Prevent [ERR_STREAM_PREMATURE_CLOSE] error log when intentionally closing a stream before end: This issue is about a problem encountered when intentionally closing a stream before it has finished processing, which results in an
[ERR_STREAM_PREMATURE_CLOSE]error being logged to the console, despite the program terminating successfully with an exit code of 0. The user suspects that the error log might originate from another stream writing to the one being closed and is seeking a way to prevent this error log from appearing, as it does not seem to indicate an actual error in the program's execution. - http.request regression > v16 regression, 400 Bad Request is thrown when GET http.request has a payload: This issue describes a regression problem in the Node.js HTTP request functionality, where a 400 Bad Request error is encountered when a GET request is made with a payload using versions above v16, specifically affecting v20.13.0 on the client side and v16.16.0 on the server side. The problem seems to arise from a combination of the server-side Node.js https.Server and the client-side https.request function, and the issue suggests that either fixing the error or adding a warning for GET requests with a body could prevent future debugging difficulties.
- Nodejs process crashed when using
consoleto print some object. TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'reloadNavigation'): This issue describes a problem where a Node.js process crashes when attempting to use theconsoleto print certain properties of an object, specifically encountering aTypeErrorrelated to reading 'reloadNavigation'. The error occurs when trying to log thec.reqobject in a TypeScript application using the Hono framework, while other properties likec.req.urlandc.req.pathcan be logged without issues. - Verify that
npmis runnable in tests: This issue is about ensuring thatnpmis properly packaged and functional in releases by incorporating checks into the testing process. It highlights past problems wherenpmwas not correctly included, suggesting that tests should verify its operability to prevent similar issues in the future.

Key Closed Pull Requests
1. net: validate non-string host for socket.connect: This pull request addresses an issue in the Node.js project where the socket.connect function was incorrectly handling non-string host inputs, such as arrays, by adding validation to ensure the host is a string, thereby preventing assertion errors during connection attempts.

- Associated Commits: 7a7ae
2. src: disable silencing warnings in config file: This pull request addresses the issue of disabling the silencing of warnings in the configuration file, as referenced in issue #57157, but it was ultimately not merged into the project.

- Merged: 2025-03-09T16:09:33Z
- Associated Commits: 4ec10
Other Closed Pull Requests
- Test Performance Hooks Flakiness: The pull request addresses a potential issue with the
test-perf-hookson SmartOS/illumos by marking it as "flaky." This is due to observed failures likely caused by jitter in the test assertion, pending further investigation into the root cause.
- Code Simplification in Node.js: The pull request removes an unused third parameter from the
insertGuardedfunction in the Node.js project. This change is safe as the parameter is never utilized and the function is not exported, thereby simplifying the code.
