var obj1 = {};
obj1.x = obj1.y = { value: 3 };
un_eval(obj1); // '({"y":({"value":3}), "x":({"value":3})})'

var obj2 = {};
obj2.x = {};
obj2.y = {};
obj2.x.y = obj2.y;
obj2.y.x = obj2.x;

eval & uneval

un_eval is disgned to be similar to uneval but works cross browser.

un_eval is similar to uneval, but there are few difference:

1. un_eval currently do not support some types such as Error.
2. un_eval will convert native function to "null".
3. un_eval will format codes differently from uneval.

Warning

Although, un_eval is designed to output source with no side effect. But there may be some bugs or limitations in the code. You should avoid using un_eval any untrustable objects (maybe from user input) then eval it. NEVER use eval unless you know what will happen.

USE AS YOUR OWN RISK.
