      public class TopLevel
      extends IdScriptableObject

  A top-level scope object that provides special means to cache and preserve the initial values of the built-in constructor properties for better ECMAScript compliance.

  ECMA 262 requires that most constructors used internally construct objects with the original prototype object as value of their [[Prototype]] internal property. Since built-in global constructors are defined as writable and deletable, this means they should be cached to protect against redefinition at runtime.

  In order to implement this efficiently, this class provides a mechanism to access the original built-in global constructors and their prototypes via numeric class-ids. To make use of this, the new `ScriptRuntime.newBuiltinObject` and `ScriptRuntime.setBuiltinProtoAndParent` methods should be used to create and initialize objects of built-in classes instead of their generic counterparts.

  Calling `Context.initStandardObjects()` with an instance of this class as argument will automatically cache built-in classes after initialization. For other setups involving top-level scopes that inherit global properties from their proptotypes (e.g. with dynamic scopes) embeddings should explicitly call `cacheBuiltins()` to initialize the class cache for each top-level scope.

    - #### getClassName

          public java.lang.String getClassName()

      Description copied from class: `ScriptableObject`
      Return the name of the class. This is typically the same name as the constructor. Classes extending ScriptableObject must implement this abstract method.
      Specified by:
        `getClassName` in interface `Scriptable`
      Specified by:
        `getClassName` in class `ScriptableObject`

    - #### cacheBuiltins

          public void cacheBuiltins()

      Cache the built-in ECMAScript objects to protect them against modifications by the script. This method is called automatically by `ScriptRuntime.initStandardObjects` if the scope argument is an instance of this class. It only has to be called by the embedding if a top-level scope is not initialized through `initStandardObjects()`.

    - #### getBuiltinCtor

          public static Function getBuiltinCtor(Context cx,
                                                Scriptable scope,
                                                TopLevel.Builtins type)

      Static helper method to get a built-in object constructor with the given `type` from the given `scope`. If the scope is not an instance of this class or does have a cache of built-ins, the constructor is looked up via normal property lookup.
      Parameters:
        `cx` - the current Context
        `scope` - the top-level scope
        `type` - the built-in type
      Returns:
        the built-in constructor

    - #### getBuiltinPrototype

          public static Scriptable getBuiltinPrototype(Scriptable scope,
                                                       TopLevel.Builtins type)

      Static helper method to get a built-in object prototype with the given `type` from the given `scope`. If the scope is not an instance of this class or does have a cache of built-ins, the prototype is looked up via normal property lookup.
      Parameters:
        `scope` - the top-level scope
        `type` - the built-in type
      Returns:
        the built-in prototype

    - #### getBuiltinCtor

          public BaseFunction getBuiltinCtor(TopLevel.Builtins type)

      Get the cached built-in object constructor from this scope with the given `type`. Returns null if `cacheBuiltins()` has not been called on this object.
      Parameters:
        `type` - the built-in type
      Returns:
        the built-in constructor

    - #### getBuiltinPrototype

          public Scriptable getBuiltinPrototype(TopLevel.Builtins type)

      Get the cached built-in object prototype from this scope with the given `type`. Returns null if `cacheBuiltins()` has not been called on this object.
