I've been working on something that splits a string at certain match points, and noticed that it crashes JSEXEC in windows, but not in linux...

try this:

"this is a test".split(/(is|a|test)/ig);

It is interesting that it's crashing. Did you confirm that you're testing with the same version of SpiderMonkey (jslib) on Windows and Linux? When I get a chance, I'll see if I can pass on a trace to the SpiderMonkey guys. They may have already fixed this one.

Anyway, String.split() doesn't take a regexp as an argument, so what you're trying to do won't work anyway. See https://developer.mozilla.org/en/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/String for details.

it does take a regexp as an argument, and the above statement works fine in linux, I can only assume it is the same version of spidermonkey, as they are both running the same dev build of synchronet. same everything.

the "g" wasnt necessary in that above example, I realize, but it does actually work... result: th,is, ,is, ,a, ,test,

interestingly enough, using a regexp gives you a slightly different result: "0123456789".split("2"); // 01,3456789
"0123456789".split(/2/); // 01,2,3456789

actually, I have to amend that last example...
"0123456789".split(/2/); // 01,3456789
"0123456789".split(/(2)/); //01,2,3456789
