- Improved V8ScriptEngine::Interrupt() latency and reliability.
- Added tests for bug fixes.
- Tested with V8 4.4.63.29.
5.4.2.1
- Fixed unnecessary assembly table construction (Issue #84).
5.4.2
- Updated ClearScriptBenchmarks to use SunSpider 1.0.2.

- Added ScriptEngine.EnableAutoHostVariables.
- Fixed by-reference arguments to VBScript functions (Issue #58).
- Removed support for Visual Studio 2012 (V8 build now requires at least Visual Studio 2013).
- Added explicit loading of primary interop assemblies to fix Issue #68.
- Added host exception marshaling for V8.
- Fixed V8ScriptEngine crash when script code calls the HostObject constructor.
- Fixed host item caching for host variables.
- Added non-generic overloads of newArr() and func() to HostFunctions.
- Added ScriptEngine.Current.
- HostFunctions instances can now be exposed in multiple script engines.
- Added a GetDynamicMemberNames() override to MetaScriptItem (Issue #64).

- Added tests for bug fixes and new APIs.
- Tested with V8 3.30.33.16.
5.4.0
- Added COM object projection (Issue #38):
- New ScriptEngine methods: AddCOMObject() and AddCOMType().
- New ExtendedHostFunctions methods: newComObj() and comType().
- Improved performance and memory usage:
- Host methods, events, and const/readonly fields are now cached as direct V8 object properties.
- Added shared bind cache for improved performance and enhanced binder leak mitigation.
- Made V8ScriptEngine.CollectGarbage() much more aggressive.
- Switched to weak context/isolate bindings for V8 script objects and compiled scripts, fixing Issue #44.
- Bypassed reflection for Windows script item property and method access, fixing Issue #47.
